What happened: The proposal called for moving Sanders before the 2026 regular season. Fan objections centered on the timing and logic of the suggested move.
Why it matters: Sanders is set to enter Week 1 in a backup role, keeping his immediate opportunity tied to the depth chart. Outside trade chatter carries limited roster significance without a formal move.
By the numbers: Sanders completed 9 of 11 passes for 74 yards in his latest preseason game, an 81.8% completion rate.
What to watch: Watch whether his role changes after Week 1 or a formal trade process emerges.
