Not even a career day from rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders was enough to save the Cleveland Browns from suffering an embarrassing defeat to No. 1 pick Cam Ward and the Tennessee Titans at home on Sunday.

Sanders, who was making just his third career start, threw for 364 yards, three touchdowns, and an interception while leading the team in rushing with 29 yards and another score.

It was the most yards a Browns QB has had all season, and the most since Jameis Winston threw for 497 yards nearly one full calendar year ago.

The loss dropped Cleveland to 3-10 this season, which many believe could be head coach Kevin Stefanski’s last after going 3-14 in 2024.

Stefanski’s job security has been one of the more hotly debated topics of the last few weeks, and there’s been growing speculation that the organization could fire him before the end of the season in preparation for hitting the reset button this offseason.

However, according to NFL insider Josina Anderson, Stefanski’s seat may not currently be as hot as some have made it out to be.

“A league source earlier this morning giving just one opinion on whether they anticipate any imminent change at #Browns head coach: ‘I’d be surprised. Might as well ride it out at this point,’” Anderson wrote.

Multiple reports indicate that Cleveland wants to finish out the season seeing what it has in Sanders as a potential quarterback of the future.

Firing Stefanski during that time would only be detrimental to Sanders’ development and make an organization already struggling with the credibility of its front office look even more incompetent.

If Stefanski is ultimately fired at the end of the year, multiple reports indicate that he will have a list of several suitors, including the New York Giants, lining up to speak with him.

Stefanski is a two-time AP Coach of the Year and has two 11-win seasons and two playoff appearances in his six years with Cleveland.
