Will Shedeur Sanders be traded before the 2026 season?

Answered 2026-07-01 · from the ChatFFB news wiki

No, there's nothing in the wiki suggesting Shedeur Sanders will be traded before the 2026 season. The Browns have him firmly in a QB competition with Deshaun Watson for the starting job, and the coaching staff — HC Todd Monken and OC Travis Switzer — have repeatedly stressed that both are "starting-level quarterbacks" who will battle through training camp and preseason (from the Shedeur Sanders and Cleveland Browns pages).

On the contrary, the Browns have been stockpiling QBs this offseason, and earlier they reportedly refused to trade backup Dillon Gabriel after drafting Taylen Green. All signs point to Cleveland wanting as many QB options as possible, not subtracting from the room. Sanders' rookie contract (5th round, 144th overall) is also team-friendly, making a trade before the season very unlikely.
