Skip Bayless is fed up with the perceived disrespect to Shedeur Sanders from the Cleveland Browns. The sports talking head went on a lengthy rant on social media over the weekend in which he argued the only way for Sanders to find success was if he gets out of Cleveland.
Of course, that’s not entirely up to the rookie quarterback. But that didn’t stop Bayless from ranting in his typical fashion anyway.
“I’m outraged and I’m sickened and I’m saddened by how Shedeur Sanders continues to be treated in the National Football League by those sorry ass Browns and sorry ass Kevin Stefanski,” he began.

Bayless argued that Sanders has not gotten a fair chance in Cleveland. The Brown already announced veteran Joe Flacco as the starter for Week 1 and have allowed fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel more preseason reps than Sanders.
Sanders was the third quarterback to play in Saturday’s preseason finale behind both Flacco and Gabriel. Bayless believes that didn’t give him the chance to full show what he was capable of.
“It’s just excruciating to watch what they’re trying to do to Shedeur,” he said. “Again, they’re still trying to teach him a lesson. They sabotaged it. They rigged it against him today putting him in with third and fourth-stringers, fifth-stringers when you’ve got no shot at quarterback. Your best play is you might as well just hand it off and see if you can get three or four yards. Shedeur’s not gonna dump pass it because he knows this is it. This is gonna be his last shot, probably for the whole year as far as the Browns go. How’s he gonna get another shot?”
