Warren Moon has strong message for Shedeur Sanders

“You can’t act like a cornerback when you’re playing quarterback. Quarterback is a humble position. You’ve got to be respectful,” Moon said on Up & Adams. “You’ve got to be a leader. You’re the face of the franchise. There’s so much more responsibility that comes along with it (and) that’s what he has to understand.”

Although Sanders come up short during the pre-draft process, Moon feels he’s in a good position with the Browns and has the opportunity to redeem himself.

“You (Sanders) understand the things that you might’ve done wrong or done right throughout the pre-draft process, but now you’re drafted,” Moon said. “You’re in an organization. You’ve got a chance to go in there and make a name for yourself. It’s how you go about doing it. It’s how you attack it. There’s nobody there that’s solidified in that job at quarterback right now.”

The NFL is a “what have you done for me lately” league, so Sanders now finds himself with a clean slate and a chip on his shoulder. If he can improve his preparation and take Moon’s advice to heart, there’s no reason to believe Sanders can’t salvage things.
