Cleveland Browns’ minicamp heats up as Shedeur Sanders outshines Deshaun Watson on Day 1, while taking all the first-team reps. Now the ball is in Watson's court heading into Day 2, but Todd Monken isn't planning on naming a starter by the end of the week.

Spencer German assesses where things stand in the competition, and why not naming a starter now in a competition where no one has truly separated themselves is okay.

Meanwhile, on the day Joel Bitonio retires, Spencer explains why his presence will be sorely missed inside the locker room. Plus, an unexpected name has entered the starting o-line conversation.
