Sheder Sanders will not train in the NFL combination.
The star of Colorado and Potential n ° 1. chose not to throw the combine this week in Indianapolis. Instead, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL network, Sanders “plans to focus on his interviews with teams” in The Combine. He will then launch his professional day before the NFL draft.

Although it is not too surprising, given the growing trend of the players league to jump to the combination in favor of doing so in their own terms, the absence of Sanders will be among the most important in the combine .
Sanders, the son of the NFL renowned temple and the Colorado coach, Deion Sanders, launched 4,134 yards and 37 affected with only 10 interceptions last season with the buffaloes. He finished eighth in the race of the Heisman trophy and played an full role in the race of the Heisman Trophy Trophy of the star of Colorado Travis Hunter. The Buffaloes went 9-4 last season, which has marked the third winning campaign of the program in the past two decades.
Sanders and Hunter should be the best choices of the NFL draft in April. Nate Tice and Charles McDonald of Yahoo Sports passed the n ° 1 to the Tennessee Titans in their last simulated project. They then passed Sanders N ° 3 to the New York Giants, which made him the second quarter of the painting behind Miami Hurricanes star, Cam Ward. We do not know if Ward will throw at the combine harvester or not.
Several of the best quarters selected during last year’s draft did not launch the combine harvester either. Caleb Williams, who went n ° 1 in the general classification at the Chicago Bears, jumped the combine. The former winner of the Heisman trophy, Jayden Daniels, who went to the second row among the commanders of Washington, and Drake Maye, who finished third in all the New England Patriots, did not launch either. Michael Penix, who went n ° 8 in total, was the most written quarter to launch the combine last season.
In the end, the choice of Sanders not to throw Indianapolis probably won’t hurt him too much. He can always interview teams and make his impression there, then throw his own environment in the near future. Where he ends up going to the project and how these choices have an impact on this, remain to be seen.
