Sanders’s new found confidence had him stating, “I’m biased, but I don’t see a quarterback that’s better than me. I don’t see a quarterback that went through as much adversity as me, that had four different OCs in four years” (Matthew Brown, Gridiron Heroics 2024).
Sanders’s first spring game is approaching and he is more than ready to get back on the field and demonstrate his ability to not succumb to injuries and unfortunate situations.
