Shedeur Sanders Is Still Waiting For A Call As The Nfl Draft Enters The Final Day

Shedeur Sanders is still waiting for a call on the NFL draft's final day, a shocking turn of events for a quarterback with arguably the highest profile in this class.

The uncertainty surrounding the Colorado star and son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders is the dominant story in this draft. Generally regarded as one of the top two quarterback prospects in this class, Sanders didn't get taken in the first round Thursday. Nor was he chosen in the second and third rounds Friday.

Sanders remained optimistic Saturday while providing an update on social media.

"Another day another opportunity to get a chance to play the game I love," he said in an X post Saturday morning. "Thank you GOD LEGENDARY."

Many of the teams with obvious quarterback needs already have drafted someone else at that position, making Sanders' situation even more of a mystery as the draft wraps up Saturday with the final four rounds. This day typically appeals more to the true draft connoisseurs, as the names of the available prospects get less familiar and much of the television coverage focuses on picks that already were made in earlier rounds.
