The NFL offseason has seen a surprising draft slide for Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders, initially ranked as the No. 5 player in the draft by Mel Kiper Jr. Unexpectedly, he fell out of the first round, being the sixth quarterback selected, and ultimately landed with the Cleveland Browns as the 144th pick in the fifth round. Sanders selected jersey number 12 for his rookie season since his traditional No. 2 was already claimed by DeAndre Carter, prompting fans to call for the veteran receiver to relinquish it for the young quarterback. The debate over jersey numbers reflects Sanders' legacy aspirations and the buzz he generates as he embarks on his professional journey.
