Browns Quarterbacks Struggle in Preseason Loss to Bears
The Cleveland Browns experienced a challenging start to their preseason, losing 34-10 to the Chicago Bears. Quarterbacks Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders struggled to make an impact during the game.
Watson completed 11 of 15 passes for 126 yards but lost a fumble during his only sack. Sanders had a less effective outing, finishing 6 of 11 for 79 yards and throwing an interception. Dillon Gabriel also faced difficulties, completing 6 of 8 passes for just 23 yards and an interception.
Despite an 81-yard touchdown drive aided by running back Dylan Sampson, Watson's performance was marked by a lack of offensive movement, averaging only 12.4 yards per drive. The competition for the starting quarterback position will continue in Week 2, with Sanders set to start and Watson coming off the bench.
