Before the start of the season, Shedeur was named as the team's third-string option on the depth chart behind QB1 Joe Flacco and backup Dillon Gabriel. However, they have managed to muster a 1-4 record under the veteran in five games.

Thus, for Sunday's game against the Vikings in London, Kevin Stefanski's team is trying its luck with rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel. He was drafted before Coach Prime's son and is expected to help the Browns secure a win at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

When Shedeur Sanders was questioned about Gabriel becoming the QB1, his mime interview went viral, drawing widespread criticism from analysts and fans. However, Adam Schefter later clarified that the rookie quarterback's behavior was a response to Rex Ryan, who had criticized Coach Prime's son for 'running his mouth.'

Did reaction did not sit well with Chris Broussard. On Thursday on ESPN's 'First Take', he called out Coach Prime for the comment he made on Shedeur Sanders' situation.

"This is a misstep," Broussard said. "There is no way to look at this and think this was good. The context is essential, and in this case, it is that Shedeur Sanders is fighting for his football life. ..."

"Shedeur has kind of misplayed the last nine months and the draft process, so has Deion. When Deion came out before the draft and was like, 'He's only going to certain teams. I'm gonna make sure he goes to the right situation. I'm gonna get involved with it.' That obviously turns some teams off and then supporting this. This is a misstep by Deion and Shedeur."

Will Kevin Stefanski give Shedeur an opportunity to become the team's QB1 this season?
