Shannon Sharpe ripped Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski after rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders had a rough NFL debut<\/a> in a 23-16 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.<\/p>\n

During the latest installment of the \u201cNightcap\u201d podcast, <\/a>Sharpe said Sanders not getting any reps with the offensive starters in practice prior to his regular-season debut is \u201cmalpractice\u201d by Stefanski.<\/p>\n

Sanders entered the game with 12:43 remaining in the third quarter\u00a0after Dillon Gabriel left the game with a concussion. <\/p>\n

\u201cKevin Stefanski, to say the first time Shedeur Sanders had taken a snap with the starters, the ones, was malpractice,\u201d Sharpe said, referring to the coach\u2019s comments on Wednesday<\/a> that Sanders had not received reps with the starting offense.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt no point in time\u2026 so you don\u2019t think Dillon Gabriel can possibly get hurt\u2026 There is no possible way anything can possibly go wrong that you want to give Shedeur one or two reps with the ones? <\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 Here we are in Week 11, the man got drafted in May and at no point in time he had taken one snap with the ones, it\u2019s very disappointing.\u201d <\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Stefanski emphasized the importance of Gabriel getting reps, but said Sanders was \u201cstill getting reps in a bunch of periods.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith a young quarterback, with Dillon starting, you want to make sure he gets a lot of the reps. It\u2019s different when you have a veteran with Joe,\u201d Stefanski said. <\/p>\n

Sanders was 4-for-16 passing with 47 yards and an interception on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Colorado product, who is the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer and Buffaloes football coach Deion Sanders, showed flashes of arm strength, but struggled against a powerhouse Ravens defense. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think I played good at all,\u201d Sanders said afterward.<\/p>\n

Gabriel was 7-for-10 passing with 68 yards when he exited the game at halftime.<\/p>\n

Browns veteran defensive end Myles Garrett \u2014 who sacked Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson four times \u2014 said Sanders addressed the team in the locker room after the game and took blame for the loss.<\/p>\n

Sanders is the backup behind Gabriel, who was named the starter last month after Cleveland benched veteran Joe Flacco, who was then traded to the Bengals.<\/p>\n

The Browns (2-8) dropped their third straight.<\/p>\n

They play the Raiders (2-7) in Las Vegas next Sunday. <\/p>\n
