Browns rookie quarterback Sanders cited for driving 101 mph
Police cited Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders for driving 41 miles over the posted speed limit in the early hours Tuesday after the 23-year-old was clocked at 101 mph by the Strongsville Police Department in Ohio.
Police records indicated that Sanders was stopped at 12:24 a.m. local time for exceeding the 60 mph limit in his black Dodge TRX truck in Strongsville, located about 20 miles southwest of Cleveland.
As a result, he must either pay a $250 fine for the fourth-degree misdemeanor or dispute the ticket in court on July 3.
A projected first-round pick in April's NFL draft after throwing for 4,134 yards (fourth in FBS) and 37 touchdowns (second) at Colorado, Sanders was selected by Cleveland in the fifth round after the Browns also drafted Oregon's Dillon Gabriel in the third.

Struggling Patriots WR issues strong three-word statement before camp
New England Patriots second-year wide receiver Javon Baker is already hard at work preparing for training camp. With 12 receivers currently on the Patriots' roster, there are no guarantees that Baker will earn a spot on the team. He only had one catch for 12 yards in 2024, and that lone catch came against the Buffalo Bills in the regular season finale. Advertisement The competition at wide receiver will be much stiffer this time out with the additions of Stefon Diggs, Mack Hollins, Kyle Williams and Efton Chism III in the offseason. Baker will need a strong camp to convince the Patriots to keep him on the roster. "This [expletive] personal," Baker posted to his Instagram story in a video of his offseason workout. Baker appears to be heading into training camp with a clear focus on playing up to his full potential. He has shown flashes of that potential as a breakout receiving talent, but he has lacked consistency on the field. The hope is that he matures into an explosive playmaker for the Patriots outside of the numbers. That might be the only chance he has of sticking on the 53-man roster at this point.

Shedeur Sanders Fighting For Browns' QB2
Shedeur Sanders Fighting For Browns' QB2 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns are the NFL team with the most quarterbacks on their roster, as they currently have five. As a result, the team has to decide where all of those guys will go on their depth chart. Advertisement One of the team's field generals is former Colorado superstar Shedeur Sanders, who the team drafted in the fifth round after he slid all the way from the first. Some think he has some growing to do, but others say the Browns should trust him going into the 2025 season. "When you and me both know that this man has the most upside of any other quarterback on this roster, there is no way that Shedeur Sanders is not entering training camp, for me, as QB No. 2 on this Browns depth chart," analyst Earl Da Pearl said on 92.3 The Fan. There are realistically four guys that will be competing for the starting job in Cleveland, as Deshaun Watson is still recovering from an Achilles tear that he suffered this past season. As a result, Sanders has an even better chance of earning the job. The 23-year-old quarterback finished his final season with the Buffaloes with 4,134 yards and 27 touchdowns on 74 percent completion, all of which led the Big 12 Conference. Advertisement No matter how you feel about the confident QB, there is no denying that he is talented, and he will be looking to use that talent to earn the Browns' starting spot in his rookie season.
