Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, a rookie, ⁤is dealing with the ⁢fallout from ⁤multiple speeding citations this ⁣month in Ohio. ‍The incidents​ raise questions about his role within the team and his ⁣responsibility off the⁤ field. This ‌ speeding issue comes as Sanders is trying to solidify his position⁣ on the depth chart.

Sanders, 23, was‍ initially pulled⁢ over by the Ohio⁣ State Patrol on June 5 in Brunswick Hills, OH, for ⁣driving 91 mph in a ⁢65 mph zone, according to ‍Medina municipal Court records. He failed to appear for ‌the arraignment‍ and​ now ‌owes $269 in fines and court​ costs.

Adding to the issue, Sanders was stopped⁢ again early Tuesday morning by Strongsville police. ⁢This time, he was clocked at⁤ 101 mph in a 60 mph zone‌ while driving a black ⁤Dodge⁢ TRX truck. He now faces ‌a $250 fine or a July 3 court date in Strongsville Mayor’s Court.

The Browns​ organization is aware of the situation. Team spokesman peter ⁣John-Baptiste told media outlets that ‍Sanders‍ “is taking care of the tickets.”

Sanders, drafted ⁤in the fifth round, ⁢is currently fourth‍ on the Browns’ depth chart⁤ at quarterback. Ahead of him are Dillon Gabriel, also​ a ⁤rookie, and veterans Kenny Pickett and joe Flacco. The team’s handling ​of Sanders’‌ responsibility will be closely watched.

What’s next
