Shedeur Sanders threw a touchdown pass in the Cleveland Browns' 31-7 preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills on Aug. 22, 2026. On third-and-7 from the Bills' 8-yard line, Sanders hit wide receiver Luke Floriea in the back of the end zone to tie the game 7-7 in the first quarter, on a drive that came after a roughly hour-long weather delay. Sanders finished 9 of 11 passing for 74 yards, with the one touchdown and one interception, for an 87.1 passer rating.
Sanders got the start and played through the first half before veteran Deshaun Watson took over after halftime; Watson struggled, and the Browns' offense as a whole managed only 109 total passing yards between the two quarterbacks against Buffalo's Kyle Allen-led defense. Multiple reports framed the outing as a notable moment in Cleveland's ongoing quarterback competition, describing it as Sanders' last extended preseason chance to make a case to coach Todd Monken for the starting job over Watson, though the Browns' overall performance and the lopsided final score tempered the outing's impact.
