Browns Rookie QB Shedeur Sanders Ticketed for Speeding Twice This Month in Ohio
Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders has been ticketed for speeding twice this month in Ohio.
Sanders was accused of driving a Dodge TRX pickup truck 101 mph on a suburban Cleveland interstate earlier this week. The 23-year-old could pay a $250 fine to waive the fourth-degree misdemeanor case, according to police.
It wasn't the first time he'd been pulled over for allegedly speeding since joining the Browns.
That ticket came after he was stopped by the Ohio State Patrol on June 5 in Brunswick Hills, Ohio. Sanders was pulled over for going 91 MPH in a 65 MPH zone, Ohio State Patrol told WKBN-TV. Sanders failed to appear for an arraignment for that ticket on Monday and owes $269 in court costs, according to Medina Municipal Court records.
Browns spokesman Peter John-Baptiste said in a statement to The Associated Press on Thursday that: "the team has addressed the tickets directly with Sanders and the tickets will be handled by him in the appropriate manner."
Sanders, the son of Hall of Fame player Deion Sanders, was drafted in the fifth round (144th overall) of the 2025 NFL Draft, though many projections had him going in the first round. He played under his father at Colorado.
Sanders is competing against three other quarterbacks with the Browns, who wrapped up minicamp last week and will open training camp in late July.

Perrion Winfrey signed by Dallas Cowboys
Former Oklahoma Sooners defensive lineman Perrion Winfrey is getting a second chance to make it in the National Football League. According to NBC Houston's Aaron Wilson, Winfrey is signing with the Dallas Cowboys, after a successful stint in the United Football League this spring. Advertisement Winfrey played defensive tackle for OU for two seasons. After transferring in from Iowa Western Community College, he was a two-year starter in Norman in both 2020 and 2021. He was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft with the 108th overall pick, after a Senior Bowl MVP performance during the pre-draft process. He appeared in 13 games during his rookie season. But an off-field incident ahead of the 2023 season led to the Browns releasing Winfrey, and he didn't play that year until the New York Jets signed him late in the season. He only appeared in one game for the Jets, and didn't play at all during the 2024 NFL season, as he was a free agent. So, Winfrey took his talents to the UFL for their 2025 season, signing with the Birmingham Stallions. He had an excellent year there, helping the Stallions make the playoffs, and was named to the All-UFL Team this spring. Winfrey totaled 29 tackles, including nine tackle for loss and a sack. He also added four pass breakups and a forced fumble in 10 games in 2025. Advertisement Now, Winfrey is getting another shot at the NFL, where he'll look to show off his impressive physical traits and potential at the highest level once again.

This 79-yard run by George Rogers is the Saints Play of the Day
This 79-yard run by George Rogers is the Saints Play of the Day Rogers set a record which still hasn't been broken after 44 years We're on to Day 79 in our countdown to the New Orleans Saints' season opener, which means the Saints Play of the Day is the longest rushing attempt in franchise history. Back in 1981, rookie running back George Rogers gave the Saints a spark on a 79-yard carry, which you can see here in an old-school highlight reel. Rogers took the handoff from Archie Manning and dodged a tackle to break out into the open field. A block from veteran wide receiver Guido Merkens bought enough time for Rogers to work his way to the goal line, where he dove through a Browns defender's tackle for the score. It was a gutsy effort which kept the Saints in it against one of the AFC's top teams that year. It was an impressive play, but what's most surprising about it is that Rogers set a record no other Saints running back has broken. His 79-yard scamper remains the longest rush by anyone in a Saints uniform over the last 44 years. Think about all the great players who have worn black and gold in that time -- fan favorites like Deuce McAllister and Reggie Bush, plus first-round picks like Mark Ingram II and Reggie Bush. Playmakers like Taysom Hill and Rashid Shaheed are still working to meet the standard Rogers set, too.

Browns' Shedeur Sanders Should Learn From Myles Garrett's Speeding Accident
Browns' Shedeur Sanders Should Learn From Myles Garrett's Speeding Accident originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Many teams passed on Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft because of how he has acted in the past, but the Cleveland Browns decided to take a chance on him. Advertisement And he is not off to the best start that he could be in first year in the league. The rookie quarterback was cited on Tuesday morning for driving 101 miles per hour in a 60 zone on I-71 in Strongsville, Ohio. This could remind Browns fans of one of their star players a few years ago. Defensive superstar Myles Garrett was driving with a passenger back in 2022 when he lost control and flipped the car three times. If he had not had his seatbelt on, he could have sustained much more serious injuries than he did, or worse. This accident came about because Garrett was speeding, which is the seventh time he was cited for driving over the speed limit. He has not been in trouble behind the wheel since then, so Sanders could learn a thing or two from his teammate. Advertisement Sanders has a great opportunity in Cleveland with how uncertain the quarterback situation is. The team has five on the roster, but none of them are the solidified starter. Many think he should at least be the team's QB2 going into the 205 season. If he can learn from his mistakes and slow down on the roads, he could have a very good chance of becoming the Browns' starting quarterback in his rookie season.
