Overview

  • On June 5 in Brunswick Hills, Ohio, Sanders was cited for driving 91 mph in a 65 mph zone and on June 17 was clocked at 101 mph in Strongsville.
  • He failed to appear for his June arraignment on the first violation and now faces a misdemeanor speeding hearing set for July 3.
  • NFL analysts such as Ross Tucker and Shannon Sharpe have criticized his accountability and warned these incidents overshadow his promising minicamp showing.
  • Deion Sanders posted a message urging his son to persevere through what he called a “sophisticated” attack by critics.
  • With veterans and other rookies in the mix, these off-field issues may undercut Sanders’s bid for significant playing time this season.
