Buccaneers player Shilo Sanders expelled for punching a teammate from the Bills in the preseason finale, subsequently terminated the next day
In the recent preseason game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Bills, Shilo Sanders' performance caught the attention of Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles. The younger brother of Hall of Fame cornerback Deion Sanders and rookie Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, Shilo demonstrated a fighting spirit and a knack for making plays.
Despite being ejected from the game for punching Zach Davidson, a tight end for an unspecified team, Shilo's performance was significant enough to warrant Todd Bowles' attention and praise. The recognized NFL defensive mind believes that Shilo can make plays and contribute to the Buccaneers in multiple ways, particularly in the box and on special teams.
Todd Bowles expressed admiration for Shilo's aggressive and hungry playing style, stating that he expects the player to show up and make an impact in the final week before roster cuts. However, following the ejection incident, the Buccaneers waived Shilo the day after the game.
Since then, Shilo Sanders has been released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and currently has no new signing. The Toronto Argonauts in the Canadian Football League hold exclusive rights to him, hoping for a reunion with his brother Shedeur Sanders. Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey, Shilo's agents, are hoping he gets claimed on waivers.
Despite the incident, Shilo Sanders has become a fan favourite due to his tireless work ethic and easygoing persona. According to ESPN, Todd Bowles made his comments about Shilo Sanders via a recent interview. The punch appeared to be a result of Shilo being excessively blocked by Zach Davidson after the play had ended.
As the final week of roster cuts approaches, it remains to be seen whether Shilo Sanders will find a new team and continue to showcase his talents on the field.
