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.'

'Tough to join mid-game': Ajinkya Rahane on Dhruv Jurel ahead of fifth Test at The Oval
Dhruv Jurel (Getty Images) NEW DELHI: India's veteran batter Ajinkya Rahane praised young wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel for taking on the wicketkeeping responsibilities during the fourth Test against England after vice-captain Rishabh Pant suffered an injury while batting. Pant fractured his toe on Day 1 of the fourth Test at Old Trafford Stadium in Manchester. Rahane, who is currently in England, took to 'X' (formerly Twitter) to commend Jurel for his performance, calling it one of the toughest tasks in the game. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! "It's tough to join as a wicket-keeper mid-game, but Dhruv Jurel stepped in and did a really solid job. Full credit to him," Rahane posted. Speaking further on the challenge, Rahane highlighted the difficulty of adapting mid-match, especially in English conditions. "When you are sitting outside, when you are watching the game and suddenly you have to come inside and do the wicket keeping, which I feel in England is the most toughest job. I thought he did that really well. He was really calm behind the wicket. He was composed. I thought his suggestions to the players, KL Rahul and also for the captain were really amazing." This was the second time in the ongoing series that Jurel was asked to don the gloves. In the third Test, Pant had also sustained a finger injury while attempting to stop a delivery from Jasprit Bumrah. Jurel had then stepped in to keep wickets in his absence.

Narayan Jagadeesan was named as his replacement in the squad. Given Jurel's recent experience behind the stumps, he is likely to feature in the playing XI for the fifth and final Test. The final Test will be held from July 31 to August 4 at The Oval in London. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!
