Shedeur Sanders Injury: Inactive Sunday

Sanders (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Sanders was added to the Browns' injury report with a 'questionable' designation Saturday due to back tightness, and he'll sit this one out and target a return to action after his team's Week 9 bye. In his absence Sunday, practice-squad elevation Bailey Zappe will serve as starting QB Dillon Gabriel's top backup.
