Browns’ Myles Garrett Makes Feelings Clear on Shedeur Sanders After Loss
Cleveland Browns superstar pass-rusher Myles Garrett showed support for rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders after his rocky debut in a 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Sanders entered the game at halftime
“Just telling him to keep his head up,” Garrett said. “He wants to make a play and have that game-changing drive. He feels like he has the ability and we’ve seen it. I told him don’t be discouraged by one or two drives. That’s a good team over there. Just trying to keep his confidence high and keep chasing that standard that he set.”
Garrett said that Sanders spoke to the entire team in the locker room after the game and attempted to take the blame. The powerful pass-rusher, who had four sacks, wasn’t going to let that happen.
“We’ll continue to support him. He spoke after the game and wanted to pin it on himself and his performance,” Garrett said. “But we’re not going to allow him to do that. It’s a team game. We’re in this together.”
Browns Will Start Dillon Gabriel if Healthy
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed after Sunday’s game that Gabriel will remain the starter if he’s healthy. However, Stefanski did caution that clearing concussion protocol is a process and there’s no certainty that Gabriel will be ready to roll. If Gabriel cannot go in Week 12 against the Raiders, it will be Sanders getting the starting nod.
At a minimum, Sanders is set to get more reps in practice this week if Gabriel misses any time. Sanders said after the game that not having chemistry with his pass-catchers was tough.
“It’s different when there are different body types out there. The different ways people are getting out of their routes,” Sanders said. “Playing quarterback is extremely hard. I like to know every detail of my receivers. What they’re good at and what they’re not good at. There are so many details that help me play confidently. We are at the bottom right now. But I’m dedicated to being able to get those opportunities with those guys.”
Sanders did promise that the loss won’t drain his legendary confidence.
“Losing isn’t something I’m comfortable with. I just gotta take this one. This really happened on my watch. I don’t like the feeling,” Sanders said. “I still have the same confidence. I’m still me. That’ll never go anywhere.”
Browns DE Myles Garrett Takes Blame for Loss to Ravens
Garrett put together another monster performance in the loss to the Ravens. He sacked Lamar Jackson four times, bringing his total to 15 this season. On Sunday, he became the
But Garrett doesn’t care about the numbers he’s racking up if it doesn’t result in a win.
“I’m going to think about the things I could have done better. I’m not going to pin it on anyone other than myself. First thing I do is look in the mirror,”
Garrett has said that he’s taking it upon himself to keep the team motivated despite the playoffs already being out of reach. The Browns will get another shot to add a tally to the win column on Sunday as they travel to take on the
Dodgers swap minor league pitchers with Mariners trade
The Los Angeles Dodgers are always on the hunt for their next move in their never-ending bid to improve the roster. The reigning World Series champion is the most feared team in MLB for a reason, and on Sunday, they made a trade with the Seattle Mariners that seems rather curious but perhaps sets them up for another eventful offseason.
As announced by the official Mariners account on X (formerly Twitter), the Dodgers have traded left-handed pitcher Robinson Ortiz to the Pacific Northwest in exchange for right-handed pitcher Tyler Gough. On the sixth of November, LA had selected Ortiz's contract from the minors, adding him to the 40-man roster, so this move certainly raises a few eyebrows.
Ortiz, the 25-year-old lefty, had been showing promise as a reliever in the minors, progressing all the way to Triple-A in 2025. He struck out over 10 batters per nine innings last year across three minor-league levels, but he had some command issues — walking over five per nine. But he did end the season with a 2.73 ERA, and he could have conceivably made an impact for the MLB team in 2026.
Nevertheless, the Dodgers have at least now freed up a spot on the 40-man roster. They at least got something in return for Ortiz, who could have been snatched up for nothing in the Rule 5 Draft had he not been added to the 40-man. However, the pitcher they acquired in Gough missed the entire 2025 season with an elbow injury.
Are Dodgers headed for busier offseason?
It's not quite clear what's in store for the Dodgers now that they have another 40-man roster spot open. Will they use it to protect other Rule 5 eligible players? Or will they add another piece to this powerhouse squad?
The Dodgers will be gunning for a three-peat, and they have all the resources in the world available to them. Perhaps adding another heavy hitter or two to infuse their lineup that struggled for periods during the 2025 season with some more consistency. Left field was a problem area for LA in 2025, so they may want to address that via trade considering how dry the left field market in free agency is.
