Will Howard vincula la caída de Shedeur Sanders con su posición tardía en el Draft de 2025

El quarterback de los Pittsburgh Steelers, Will Howard, cree que la inesperada caída de Shedeur Sanders en el Draft de la NFL de 2025 retrasó las selecciones de otros pasadores, incluido él mismo. Howard, quien fue elegido en la sexta ronda, compartió sus reflexiones durante una reciente aparición en un podcast. Recordó que esperaba ser seleccionado el viernes, pero vio cómo la clase de quarterbacks se estancó después de la caída de Sanders.

En una conversación con su compañero de equipo Christian Kuntz, Howard señaló que la situación de Sanders afectó a prospectos como Riley Leonard, Kyle McCord y Quinn Ewers. “Su caída realmente perjudicó a muchos de los otros quarterbacks de nuestra clase”, afirmó. Muchos evaluadores habían proyectado a Howard para la tercera o cuarta ronda; sin embargo, él y varios de sus pares tuvieron que esperar hasta rondas posteriores.
