Shedeur Sanders, the quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes, has been making waves in the football world. Johnny Manziel, a Heisman Trophy winner, has high praise for Sanders and believes he could be the top quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft. Despite some setbacks, Sanders has been performing exceptionally well this season, with impressive stats to back up his talent.
In the recent game against Kansas State, Sanders showcased his skills by completing 34-of-40 passes for 388 yards, throwing three touchdowns and only one interception. This strong performance has caught the attention of many, including Manziel. However, Manziel also pointed out that some teams at the top of the draft board may not necessarily pick Sanders due to their current quarterback situations.
For instance, the Carolina Panthers invested heavily in drafting Bryce Young but ended up benching him in favor of Andy Dalton after a series of disappointing performances. On the other hand, the Jacksonville Jaguars have shown commitment to their quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, by signing him to a lucrative contract extension. These factors may impact Sanders’ draft prospects, but his consistent performance on the field continues to make a strong case for him.
As Sanders prepares for the upcoming game against Arizona, all eyes will be on him to see if he can further solidify his position as a top quarterback prospect. His dedication, skill, and resilience on the field have already earned him recognition from seasoned players like Manziel. It will be interesting to see how Sanders navigates the challenges ahead and cements his place as a standout player in college football.
