The Frustration of a Caged Talent

Sanders did not hesitate to express his dissatisfaction with his current role on the scout team. “No player is okay with being on the bench,” he stated. “I would be frustrated too if I knew I was better than damn near half the quarterbacks in the NFL right now and I was on the bench. Oh, I’m super mad.”. These words not only reflect personal frustration but also show his intense belief in his own abilities.

He also shared that he watched Coach Prime on the New Heights podcast, where Coach Prime commented on the timing of when he might get to play. Although he didn’t elaborate, Sanders emphasized his preparedness: “I focus on what I have to do each and every day… just because where I am on a depth chart don’t let that dictate my mindset each and every day.” He believes that an opportunity can come at any time, and maintaining focus is paramount.

“I Know For Sure I’m Capable of Doing Better”

When asked if he felt he was close to getting a chance to play, Sanders responded realistically that playing or not playing is not in his hands. However, he affirmed: “If things happen, things turn out where I play, then I’ll be out there and I’d be ready to play.” He specifically disagreed with the notion that sitting on the bench is a great learning experience. “Everybody’s perspective,” he said, “but I know for sure I’m not… if you see the quarterback play in the league right now, I know I know I’m capable of doing better than that.”.

This declaration is not just a challenge to the current quarterbacks in the league but also a strong affirmation of Sanders’ extraordinary self-confidence in his own skills. He feels he is progressing well in the practice reps he has received and is not comfortable with his current role: “I’m not comfortable being a skeleton player, honestly. That’s my situation.” However, he also mentioned that he is enjoying these moments, learning and doing everything necessary to prepare for his opportunity.

Faith in God’s Plan

Despite the frustration of watching other quarterbacks play and knowing he could do well too, Sanders maintains a calm attitude and trusts in fate. “I know it’s not God’s plan right now,” he shared. “If that was the situation, it’s obvious a lot of teams would play me, but that’s not in God’s plan right now. And some things happen for a reason, and I’m a true believer in that.”

He doesn’t feel stressed or bad about his current situation, but admits that it is “just funny to me”. This shows a surprising maturity in how he handles the challenges of his young career.

A Voice From Jon The Liquidator 2.0 and the Community
