Last winter, quarterback Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders wworked out together while preparing for the NFL draft. Coming off successful seasons with Miami and Colorado, respectively, Ward and Sanders were both expected to be taken in the first round of the draft—if not within the top five picks—and likely become starting quarterbacks for NFL franchises.
Those expectations only panned out for Ward, who was taken first in the draft by the Titans and will be their starter. Sanders, on the other hand, shockingly fell to the fifth round amid reports that he didn't do well in pre-draft interviews, including a report that he may have intentionally "sandbagged" talks with teams he did not like. Currently, Sanders is the Browns' third-string quarterback behind Joe Flacco and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel.
