Shedeur Sanders could be traded to Matthew Stafford's Los Angeles Rams
On July 16, Hunter Cookston of Sporting News reported that Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders could be traded to the Los Angeles Rams. But he mentioned it under one condition.
That condition was NFL Analyst Emmanuel Acho labelling him as a camp body. Acho said, 'The reality for Shedeur Sanders is that, as a fifth-round pick, it rarely matters how talented you are. You may never even get the opportunity to win the starting job. Sometimes, as a fifth, sixth, or seventh-round pick, they are already cutting you. You are a camp body. You are there for training camp.'
How would Shedeur Sanders learn from Los Angeles Rams star quarterback Matthew Stafford?
Mark Sipos of Dawg Pound Daily wrote that Matthew Stafford is still capable of playing the signal caller for the Los Angeles Rams.
But the Rams don't have a clear succession plan in place for him. Shedeur Sanders could be that successor for him. He could learn a lot from Sean McVay's system. And, ultimately, grow into a potential starting quarterback for the Rams. Sipos further stated that Sanders' timing-based game and quick release align with the Rams' scheme.
Also, since Stafford's taking the reins, there would be no pressure on the rookie to play early.

Learning from the veteran QB could be in place for the rookie.
Plus, Stafford has been pushing himself as the Rams' starting QB for far too long now. The 37-year-old even played with broken ribs last year. Having a rookie QB back him up would give him the rest he needs and the confidence Rams need.
Shedeur Sanders tweets 'time will tell' amidst trade rumors
When everybody is analyzing who would pick the fifth-round 144th overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, Shedeur Sanders is keeping calm.
On July 14, he tweeted a cryptic post on his X account, 'time will tell 🤫' - requesting everyone to have patience and keep mum. But the X users could not keep calm. They had their views ready. One fan completed Sanders' statement of 'Time will tell' with - 'that you shouldn't have even been drafted.
'
Another user did not want to second-guess his stay with the Cleveland Browns, 'QB1. 😤🔥.' A third fan wished the best for him, 'Keep grinding, keep growing and, keep going. Prove yourself right and, your doubters wrong.' A fourth fan further motivated him, 'I'm just waiting for you to land somewhere permanent so I can get that jersey.' A fifth user commented, 'Stay focused nephew keep the main thing the main thing.'

IND vs ENG 4th Test: 'Not satisfied with my bowling' – Debutant Anshul Kamboj reflects on maiden wicket and learning from Jasprit Bumrah
Anshul Kamboj celebrates after taking the wicket of Ben Duckett in Manchester. (Pic credit: BCCI) NEW DELHI: India's newest Test debutant, Anshul Kamboj, announced himself on the big stage with a crucial breakthrough on Day 2 of the fourth Test at Old Trafford, Manchester, removing England opener Ben Duckett for 94 and giving his team a much-needed lifeline after a dominant opening stand. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! The 24-year-old Haryana pacer, drafted into the squad after injuries to multiple frontline quicks, produced a sharp, rising delivery from a back-of-a-length that surprised Duckett, who could only edge it to substitute wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel. It was Kamboj's maiden Test wicket, and his emotional celebration — arms outstretched and a roar of relief — reflected what the moment meant to him. How and why Rishabh Pant's England tour could come to an abrupt end due to toe fracture Speaking to broadcasters after the day's play, Kamboj was honest and grounded in his reflections. 'I felt good. I tried to start by bowling in good areas… I am not satisfied with my bowling,' he chuckled modestly. 'I tried to come and bowl. I would have done better.' Poll What was your impression of Anshul Kamboj's debut performance? Outstanding Solid but could improve The nerves of debuting in a high-stakes series were evident.

Kamboj also shared the invaluable experience of bowling alongside India's pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah . 'There is so much to learn. When you are bowling with Jasprit Bumrah, you get to learn a lot. We keep having discussions about what we need to do, so I have to adapt accordingly,' he said. Kamboj's journey from India A ranks to the Test arena has been rapid but deserved, and with this first wicket under his belt, he has taken the first big stride in what could be a long journey ahead. India ended the day with hopes rekindled, thanks in no small part to a debutant who rose to the occasion. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!

'India "handed" Rishabh Pant's runs back to England': Ex-England captain questions Shubman Gill's captaincy
Rishabh Pant (Getty Images) NEW DELHI: England asserted their dominance on Day 2 of the fourth Test against India at Old Trafford, Manchester, ending Thursday's play at 225/2. A commanding 166-run opening stand between Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley laid the foundation, helping England close in on India's first innings total of 358. The deficit now stands at just 133 runs, despite Rishabh Pant 's earlier half-century. Duckett and Crawley resumed the final session at 77 without loss and continued to pile on the runs. Duckett reached his fifty with a boundary off Shardul Thakur, which also took England past the 100-run mark. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Crawley wasn't far behind, bringing up his own half-century by driving Thakur to the boundary in the 21st over. England crossed 150 in the 29th over, courtesy of another Duckett boundary—this time off Mohammed Siraj. Former England skipper Nasser Hussain didn't hold back in his criticism of India's bowling and captaincy. "Slightly changing conditions, but they bowled very poorly. A change in overhead conditions doesn't make you bowl both sides of the wicket. Too many balls on the pads. Captain's decisions... didn't quite agree with, to be honest. Kamboj wasn't in the squad a week ago, to bring him into the team and give him a new ball ahead of Siraj. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gold Is Surging in 2025 — Smart Traders Are Already In IC Markets Learn More Undo .. seems odd," Hussain said on Sky Sports. He continued: "I would've gone for Siraj for a short burst, then switched him to the other end to follow Bumrah. We've all been talking about the green channel on the strip across... this is the end where Stokes bowled and got his fifer, and got uneven bounce and sideways movement. Everything that could go wrong has gone wrong." How and why Rishabh Pant's England tour could come to an abrupt end due to toe fracture The former captain added: "Rishabh Pant went out there on one leg, and got valuable runs today. They've just handed those runs back to England." The breakthrough finally came in the 32nd over when Ravindra Jadeja dismissed Crawley for 84 off 113 balls, breaking the opening stand at 166. England lost their second wicket at 197, with debutant Anshul Kamboj claiming his first Test scalp by removing Duckett for 94 from 100 deliveries. England crossed 200 in the 39th over, with Ollie Pope finding the boundary off Kamboj. At stumps, Pope and Joe Root had added an unbeaten 28-run partnership. For India, Kamboj returned figures of 1/48 from 10 overs, while Jadeja ended the day with 1/37 in 8 overs. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!

IND vs ENG Test: 'It was two against eleven – I loved it' - Zak Crawley opens up on Lord's firefight with Team India

(AFP Photo) England opener Zak Crawley has shed light on the fiery confrontation with India captain Shubman Gill during the tense third day of the Lord's Test, calling it one of the most exhilarating moments of the series so far. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! The drama unfolded late on Day 3, when Crawley and fellow opener Ben Duckett took 90 seconds longer than usual to walk out to bat. The delay drew immediate protest from Gill, who accused the duo of deliberately wasting time to face fewer deliveries before stumps. What followed was a heated exchange, with nearly the entire Indian team surrounding the batters in an intense verbal standoff. How and why Rishabh Pant's England tour could come to an abrupt end due to toe fracture Recalling the moment, Crawley said at the post-day press conference of the Manchester Test on Thursday: "I've always enjoyed that part of cricket, to be honest, especially when you're batting. There's two of you against eleven, and they're desperate to get you out, and they're chirping you... I loved that little eight-minute passage."
