Shedeur Sanders made his second career start against the San Francisco 49ers this past Sunday, and it wasn't as successful as his first.

Sanders couldn't get much going against Robert Saleh's defense, completing 16 of 25 pass attempts for 149 yards and a touchdown, and scrambling once for six yards.
But head coach Kevin Stefanski thought he saw some bright spots from Sanders' performance, and said as much to reporters at his Monday press conference.
Kevin Stefanski looking forward to 'constant improvment' from Shedeur Sanders
"There are things that he wants back that we’re coaching up right now that he can improve upon. But bottom line is we have to continue to put our players in position to succeed," Stefanski said.

So just looking forward to that constant improvement with Shedeur and for all of our young players."
Sanders is set to get his third consecutive start when the Browns take on the Tennessee Titans this Sunday.
In three appearances this season, the former Colorado Buffalo has completed 50.8% of his passes for 405 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions.
He'll get to face a bottom-six defense in the Titans, who currently rank 27th in the league in EPA/play defensively.
