Overview
- On Wednesday, Browns coach Todd Monken told reporters he "can't wait" to meet with Deion Sanders and said he respects Sanders's work as a player and coach.
- Deion Sanders has asked to meet "as a coach, not a dad" to discuss ways to get the most out of his son Shedeur, who drew attention for saying he was not consulted during his son's rookie year.
- Monken confirmed Shedeur has received significant first‑team reps during OTAs and praised his recent practice days while calling him "still a developmental player" with "huge upside."
- Deshaun Watson remains in the competition with reported schematic and experience advantages, and the Browns are alternating reps as Monken says the decision will be decided on performance in mandatory minicamp and preseason.
- If the meeting happens, Monken framed it as part of a coach‑to‑coach conversation focused on football preparation rather than team interference and said he is open to meeting whenever Deion is available.
