Shedeur Sanders' Trainer Compares Him to Joe Burrow Entering 2025 NFL Draft

 Shedeur Sanders is one of the top NFL quarterback prospects in this year's draft and his trainer thinks he compares to Joe Burrow coming out of LSU.

Darrell Colbert trains Sanders and projected top overall pick Cam Ward, making those comments on the Rich Eisen Show with Tom Pelissero filling in.

"I think that's a great fit," Colbert said when comparing the two. "Joe Burrow is always confident, always calm, Shedeur is always this. He's one of the guys who's literally always that. He never gets too high, never gets too low. Joe does a great job of being accurate and understanding the system. And then I think where the comparison really works, is the year that Joe and them went to the Super Bowl, he was sacked a lot. He was the most-sacked quarterback in the NFL and was still productive, that's who Shedeur was last year being sacked over 50-something times and still being productive, still at the top of all the quarterback statistics."

A lofty mark for Sanders to live up to after Burrow led the Bengals to the AFC Championship Game twice in his first three seasons and led the NFL in passing during his fifth campaign.

The Colorado product is ranked fourth on the consensus big board and second among quarterbacks in this draft.
