Browns fans will love Shedeur Sanders' comments on Todd Monken originally appeared on The Sporting News.

"So that's what clicked for me. And then I was like, 'OK, I need to improve this area.'"And it's just one step at a time. You got to do this, you got to do this.
You keep adding things as you start getting momentum and everything. So, I think it's just having (a head coach) just talking to you, like, I think that's it. Just a relationship.
I'm a relationship-based person, so I take relationships extremely serious."More:Todd Monken offers scouting report on Browns' QB competitionSanders leading QB competition?It is only early in the offseason, so there won't be a clear clubhouse leader, and Monken stated that all quarterbacks, including Sanders, Deshaun Watson, and Dillon Gabriel, looked good.So, there will be no sweeping statements about the quarterback battle just yet, as everyone is still trying to figure out Monken's system.Some think Sanders should get the first shot at being the starter, but it is clear that Monken wants everyone to have an equal opportunity to prove themselves.It looms as a fascinating battle to watch over the coming months, and Sanders has already gotten the benefits of Monken's style, so maybe that will hold him in good stead as he looks to be the starter come Week 1.More NFL news:Bold draft prediction has Chiefs going in surprising directionBears' Caleb Williams has ideal mindset ahead of 2026 seasonJets GM plays down David Bailey controversyGiants fix Saquon Barkley mistake in latest mock draftInsider drops interesting A.J.
