After Sanders slid to the fifth round of the 2025 draft, selected 144th overall on Day 3 by the Cleveland Browns, it’s hard not to compare his fall to the slide of five-time MVP Tom Brady, who was drafted in the sixth round at 199th overall.

On Friday, Sanders got his first reps with the Browns as the team ran drills and short-sided games from their facility in Berea, Ohio. During the session, Sanders showed his arsenal, throwing over the defense and threading passes for two touchdowns in 7-on-7 scrimmages.
