Damar Hamlin intercepted Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders this Saturday, and he immediately went viral. Hamlin didn’t just make the play, he had to hit the watch flex while celebrating with his teammates, clearly trolling Sanders right there on the field. This wasn’t just any play either, it was Sanders’ *second* interception of the preseason already.

Hamlin Snags It, Sanders Throws It Away

It was a rough one for Sanders. He threw behind his receiver on a five-yard slant, and the ball just popped right into the air. That’s a gift for any defensive back, and Hamlin was right there to snag it. What’s worse, that wasn’t even Sanders’ first mistake of the preseason; it was his second interception in early action.

Shedeur’s Interception Woes Are Back

This isn’t a new issue for Sanders either. We saw this last year when he threw 10 interceptions in just seven starts as a rookie. This preseason pick, the second one already, shows that it’s an ongoing problem. You have to wonder what’s going through the Browns’ minds seeing this early in the preseason, especially with the team possibly looking at quarterbacks by Monday. That kind of play, especially with the celebration from Hamlin, shines a harsh light on what’s been a clear struggle for Sanders. If these early preseason games are any indication, the Browns are going to have to address this problem head-on before the regular season even kicks off.
