Sanders, 26, went after Browns reporter Mary Kay Cabot with a blatantly sexist comment after she advocated for the Browns to start Deshaun Watson over his brother, Shedeur.

In response, Cabot handled the situation with grace in a call to a local radio station.
“I know so many women who have joined the football world especially because of some of the things I’ve been able to do over the years, I’m happy about that.”

Shilo, who never saw NFL action, not only made himself look bad, but he also created a potential rift in an already complicated Browns QB room and strained Shedeur’s relationship with the Browns’ beat reporters.
“He doesn’t need you to stick up for him. You’re making him sound like he’s afraid of competition. Just stop. You’re not helping your brother.”

Unnecessary error that puts Shedeur in a bad spot, as I said before. Iβm never wrong, just early. https://t.co/Z5urUzycrb pic.twitter.com/UWVobpZxFQ

How will the Sanders family react to Shilo’s defense of his brother?
