Shedeur Sanders Flips Jersey, Seeks NFL Turnaround

0:00It's March 30th. From kickoff to the final whistle, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Cleveland Brown's quarterback Shadora Sanders is switching his jersey number back to number 2 for year 2, the same digits he rocked to Colorado. As a fifth round pick last season, he was stuck with number 12 through eight gains, including seven starts. Now he's reclaiming that college vibe to spark something fresh. His rookie year had highs and lows, with wins against Las Vegas and Pittsburgh, but plenty of struggles too. Completion rate sat around 50%, seven touchdowns against 10 picks, not the standard for pro ball. Meanwhile, Brown's fans hoped this number flipped signals a turnaround. Back in college, Sanders lit it up with 71% completions, 64 touchdowns, and just 13 interceptions, oozing confidence and accuracy. That squagger didn't fully show up in the NFL last year, leaving everyone wondering if the real deal is still in there.

1:01Year 2 feels make or break for him, especially with the 2027 draft loaded with quarterback prospects like archmaning. Brown's brass sees a win-win, if Sanders balls out, he's the guy. If not, they pivot to a rookie without much loss. He's betting on this change to unlock that Colorado magic and lock down Cleveland long term, flipping the script on a rocky start.
