Shilo Sanders received an ejection after punching tight end Zach Davidson during Saturday’s preseason game between the Buccaneers and Bills. The next day, Tampa waived him. His agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey, are “hoping he gets claimed on waivers.”

Sanders’ punch appeared to be the result of being excessively blocked by Davidson, who continued to block Sanders after the play had ended. Sanders, though, was the one who got ejected after he punched Davidson. 

Sanders is the son of Colorado coach and Hall of Fame cornerback Deion Sanders and older brother of Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders. The young defensive back has quickly become a fan favorite with his tireless work ethic and his easygoing persona.

Browns QB takeaways: Shedeur Sanders swallowed up, Dillon Gabriel makes the case to be Joe Flacco's backup

Sanders, whose fighting spirit was clearly on display Saturday night against the Bills, did make a strong impression on Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles, one of the NFL’s brightest defensive minds. 

“Shilo’s very aggressive, very young, very hungry,” Bowles recently said, via ESPN. “He can make plays in the box and we know he can run down and give us 100% on special teams, so this last week is going to be very important for those guys to show up.”

There was no panic from Dak Prescott following Sunday's loss to the Panthers, but for the Dallas Cowboys to recover, they have to find an answer for how to close. With the game tied at 27, Dallas went three-and-out on a pivotal possession midway through the fourth quarter, giving the Carolina Panthers an opportunity for a walk-off victory.The Cowboys are 1-2-1 in games decided by a single possession, which includes the opening loss against the Philadelphia Eagles."I wouldn't say it's demoralizing, I'd definitely say it's frustrating," Prescott said. "Just even the last time we had the ball, that was not our best series of the game right there … at a crucial point like that, we just can't do that."Prescott threw three touchdown passes against Carolina, his last coming late in the third quarter on a 34-yarder to George Pickens that gave the […]
