Will Howard führt Shedeur Sanders' Absturz auf dessen späte Platzierung im Draft 2025 zurück

Der Quarterback der Pittsburgh Steelers, Will Howard, glaubt, dass Shedeur Sanders' unerwarteter Fall im NFL Draft 2025 die Auswahl anderer Spielmacher, einschließlich seiner selbst, verzögert hat. Howard, der in der sechsten Runde ausgewählt wurde, äußerte seine Gedanken während eines kürzlichen Podcast-Auftritts. Er erinnerte sich daran, dass er erwartet hatte, am Freitag gewählt zu werden, musste aber zusehen, wie der Quarterback-Jahrgang nach dem Absturz von Sanders ins Stocken geriet.

Im Gespräch mit seinem Teamkollegen Christian Kuntz merkte Howard an, dass Sanders' Situation Aussichten für Spieler wie Riley Leonard, Kyle McCord und Quinn Ewers beeinträchtigte. „Dass er abgerutscht ist, hat vielen anderen Quarterbacks in unserem Jahrgang wirklich geschadet“, sagte er. Viele Experten hatten Howard in der dritten oder vierten Runde erwartet, doch er und mehrere seiner Mitstreiter mussten bis zu den späteren Runden warten.
