LeBron James praised Cleveland Browns rookie Shedeur Sanders for his first-half touchdown pass against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

Sanders found Harold Fannin Jr. with no 49ers defenders around him, took the pass and ran for the score. The 34-yard touchdown pass set up a successful 2-point conversion attempt. The Browns had a brief lead.

“Damn, read and pass 12! Keep going!” the Los Angeles Lakers star wrote in X.

It was Sanders’ second touchdown pass of the season. He was making his second career start after being named QB1 earlier in the week over Dillon Gabriel, who cleared concussion protocol. He won last week against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Cleveland hasn’t had a great season despite Myles Garrett having a career year with his sack totals. Sanders is the third quarterback Cleveland has used this season after initially opting for Joe Flacco to start the 2025 season.

The Browns selected Sanders in the fifth round of the draft and he had to work hard to move up the depth chart after starting the year as QB3.

With all the noise and rumors surrounding him, Sanders said earlier in the week that he was only focused on the 49ers.

“What people do outside the building is not really under my control. It’s not in my power. It’s not like I can go out and tell them to do whatever,” Sanders said. “Coach Stefanski has been training since I got here and we’ve been doing a great job with everything that’s going on. He tells me what I need to do on and off the field. We’ve definitely grown, our relationship and everything has grown.”
