Four weeks after the start of the NFL season, Shilo Sanders is still looking for a second chance in the League after being released by the Buccaneers of Tampa Bay in finals.
Sanders quickly became a favorite of fans at Tampa Bay and did all the good things out of the field, but he could not separate once the pads came out. He fought throughout the pre-season, tormented by missed plated and a lack of splashing games in the blanket. Even if secondary injuries seemed to open a door to sneak on the list, the Buccaneers let him go and did not bring him back to the training team.
His most memorable moment in red and tin was his infamous ejection in the pre-season final after punching on Buffalo Bills the tight winger Zach Davidson, which was ultimately proven to be the last nail in the coffin for his pass Bucs. But despite the rocky end, Sanders left a favorable global impression within the organization.
“We are told that the Buccaneers liked to have Shilo in the building, seeing the son of Deion Sanders as a good child who was at any time respectful of everyone. Shilo was also immediately full of remorse following the incident which disqualified him from the second quarter of the match against the Bills,” said Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.
Now Sanders finally has another look in the NFL and could have a chance to resuscitate his career.
The 49ers bring an ex-Buc Shilo Sanders for training
The 49ers of San Francisco welcomed Sanders for a training session this week, according to Adam Schefter d’Espn. San Francisco explores safety options and could see the 24 -year -old as a potential depth piece.
Sanders’ father, the Daion Sanders renown temple, spent a season with the 49ers in 1994, leading the league with six interceptions – including three pick -six – on the way to honors in the first team All -Pro, the defensive player of the year and a title of the Super Bowl XXIX.
Now his son hopes to follow these traces and revive his NFL dreams in San Francisco. Although no immediate signature has been made, Sanders is firmly on the 49ers radar.
The Buccaneers faced the 49ers at Tampa Bay during week 6. If Sanders landed with San Francisco, this could set up an opportunity for the stories book to return to the Raymond James stadium with a flea on his shoulder and prove that the Bucs abandated him.
