"How could he have three different injuries without even taking No. 1 reps all year long?"
"Opinions are like noses and buttholes: everybody has them."
"If [Sanders’] back isn’t locked up and he doesn’t need a back-iotomy, just put him out there, for the love of Christ!"
"Has anybody asked the question to the Tennessee Titans about their backup quarterback getting reps?"
"We not on no negativity from now on. We not doing that."
"I want him to be authentic. But he got to understand he's going to be criticized."
"There's no sense to having him available."
"People see this clip and they say, 'what is this guy doing here?' without realizing the actual context to it."
"When you're saying these things on Get Up, which is a national show where people get their information from, you're now giving the assumption, whether it's true or not, that this guy doesn't work hard."
Sanders knows he’s a lightning rod for attention.
The mother of the Browns' rookie quarterback posted a fiery Instagram response after Ryan questioned her son's work ethic on national TV.
"Shedeur can't help himself. He's been out of the limelight. He's hurting. And he's best at giving interviews."
According to ESPN Cleveland's Tony Rizzo, Shedeur Sanders has quickly become a bystander with the Browns as third-string quarterback.
"That's a Barry Sanders jersey, everybody. Barry Sanders."
"I'm just saying the excitement is there for [Sanders] to go out there. He's going to put eyes on the screen. He's going to bring people to the game."
"I’m committed to his development, just like all of our rookies."
"I'm not tripping, regardless of whatever it was. Nobody's words or anything affects me."
"This came from a very good source."
"No, no, no, no, no, this is Barry Sanders."
"There's entertainers and there's competitors... my job is to compete."
Friday night's Browns-Panthers game drew 2.24 million viewers.
"He handled it better than we did."
