The Cleveland Browns' preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers tonight features rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, son of Deion Sanders, making his first start. Despite draft concerns about his attitude, Sanders' opportunity arises due to injuries to other quarterbacks. The Browns rejected trade offers for him during the offseason. The Panthers, celebrating their Super Bowl 50 anniversary, aim for a strong season under coach Dave Canales. The game airs nationally on NFL Network and locally on various channels.
