Overview
- Netflix's Season 3 release in mid‑July 2026 includes a 2025 practice clip in which veteran Joe Flacco mockingly criticized rookie Shedeur Sanders for wearing a mirrored helmet visor.
- In the filmed exchange Flacco said visors are worn for looks and used explicit language to call them impractical, while rookie Dillon Gabriel defended the visor as an "eye shield."
- The footage was recorded during the Browns' 2025 offseason and training camp, a period that preceded Flacco starting four early-season games, being benched, and then being traded to the Cincinnati Bengals.
- Shedeur Sanders started Cleveland's final seven games in 2025, throwing about 1,400 yards and seven touchdowns, but his 2026 starting role remains contested in the team's quarterback competition.
- NFL rules allow clear visors for all players, require approval for tinted visors on medical grounds, and ban dark visors, and the clip has reopened discussion about whether visors are a safety tool or a style choice.
