STRONGSVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders is accused of driving a pickup truck 101 mph (163 kilometers per hour) on a suburban Cleveland interstate earlier this week.
The Strongsville Police Department stopped Sanders at about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday in a 60 mph (97 kilometers per hour) zone on Interstate 71 near the Ohio Turnpike, according to a report provided to local media.

Sanders, 23, could pay a $250 fine to waive the fourth-degree misdemeanor case, according to police.
The Browns did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Sanders, the son of Hall of Fame player Deion Sanders, was drafted in the fifth round (144th overall) of the NFL draft this spring, even though many projections had him going in the first round. He played under his father at the University of Colorado.
Sanders is competing against three other quarterbacks with the Browns. They wrapped up minicamp last week and will open training camp in late July.

As per the plan, the 18-year-old will work directly under the German coach in the early weeks of preparation.

Former German referee expects more AI in officiating, even on fouls
Referee Felix Brych smiles during an interview with the German Press Agency (dpa) at the launch of his book "Aus kurzer Distanz" (from a short distance). Artificial Intelligence (AI) will have a growing influence in the officiating football matches, including the detection of fouls, former Bundesliga referee Felix Brych believes. Peter Kneffel/dpa Artificial Intelligence (AI) will have a growing influence in the officiating football matches, including the detection of fouls, former Bundesliga referee Felix Brych believes. "AI calculates if someone is offside. There are even the first tests on how to calculate physical contact - was it really enough for a player to fall?" Brych told weekly Die Zeit. Advertisement Brych, 49, ended his career spanning two decades last month after a record 359 games in the Bundesliga and 69 in the Champions League. He said it was important for him to rely on his own perception and not just on the increasingly integrated technical aids. "If someone falls down without being hit, his team-mates immediately look at me. They want to know: What's the referee doing now?" Brych said. "If, on the other hand, someone is fouled properly, the team-mates first want to know how badly their team-mate has been hit. They then react a fraction later."
