CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders didn't disappoint in his highly-anticipated NFL debut.

Sanders, the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, threw a pair of first-half touchdown passes as he started the Browns' preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers on Friday night.

Sanders threw his first touchdown on a 7-yard pass to wide receiver Kaden Davis on the first play of the second quarter, threading the ball through a tight window in the back corner of the end zone. Cleveland's offense capitalized on a short field after the Browns recovered a muffed punt deep in the red zone. The touchdown prompted celebration from his father and former college coach, Deion Sanders, on social media.
