Schefter reported via his X account: “49ers had Shilo Sanders in today for a workout,” and this post went viral. There are a lot of people out there that are rooting for Shilo Sanders.
Sanders played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier in the year and was ejected from the game for defending himself; he was subsequently released from the team.
Football is a contact sport. Let’s not be biased because his last name is Sanders. So, I’m absolutely excited.
The 49ers need reinforcement in the secondary. Sanders brings very good coverage skills and aggressiveness that every defense needs. He can lay the boom, making wide receivers second-guess running a post route across the middle.
Sanders brings that total package on and off the field, a good guy who is humble and optimistic. Fans gravitate to him.
