## Resource

Denver Broncos cut ties with linebacker Drew Sanders, ending his NFL journey after injuries derailed his promising rookie season. A 2023 third-round pick, Sanders dazzled at Arkansas in 2022 with 103 tackles and 9.5 sacks, earning unanimous All-America honors — the first Razorback LB to do so since 1964. Despite playing all 17 games as a rookie and starting four, recurring injuries — including a torn Achilles and foot tendon issues — limited him to just four games in 2024 and zero in 2025. Coach Sean Payton emphasized health concerns over performance, noting Sanders’ effort and physical tools remain strong at age 26. With his future uncertain, Sanders’ next opportunity may hinge on staying healthy — and proving he can translate his college dominance into consistent NFL production.
