Shedeur Sanders might have just dropped a major hint about his NFL future. The talented quarterback made a seemingly innocent comment during a recent interview, but fans are convinced it was a subtle clue about where he expects to land in the upcoming draft.
Sanders, who attended the Shrine Bowl in Arlington, Texas, was asked about his experience at AT&T Stadium, the home of the Dallas Cowboys. His response? “Being in this stadium is definitely fun. I know I’ll play here very soon against the Cowboys.”
That seemingly offhand remark has sent Giants fans into a frenzy. Why? Because the Giants are the only team with a top-three draft pick that’s scheduled to play in Dallas next season. Could Sanders be hinting that he expects to be drafted by the Giants?
Of course, it’s possible that Sanders was just making a general statement about his NFL future. But the timing of his comment, coupled with his previous hints about wanting to play for the Giants, has fueled speculation that he could be headed to New York.
The Giants are in desperate need of a quarterback, and Sanders is one of the top prospects in the draft. He’s got the arm talent, the athleticism, and the leadership qualities to be a franchise quarterback. And with his father, Deion Sanders, now coaching in the NFL, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Shedeur follow in his footsteps.
This is a situation to watch closely. Sanders’ comment might be nothing more than a coincidence, but it could also be a sign of things to come. Giants fans are hoping that Sanders is indeed dropping hints about his future, and that he’ll be wearing blue and white next season.
