Giants’ Darius Slayton backs Shedeur Sanders after pro day criticism ahead of 2025 NFL Draft
NY Post
Darius Slayton is already going to bat for the Giants’ potential first-round pick.
The veteran receiver downplayed criticism surrounding Shedeur Sanders patting the football before throwing during the Colorado quarterback’s pro day workout last Friday.
Some, including new Jets safety Andre Cisco, raised flags about Sanders’ patting tendency and how that could possibly work adversely against him in the NFL.
“😂😂I promise he can pat the ball and be just fine if DB’s was so good at breaking on ball pats they’d all have 8+ picks a year,” Slayton posted Saturday to X.
“Same guys that fall for a 2 man dagger concept and give up the dig on 3rd&long every season all season long talkin bout a ball pat what a joke😂.”
It seems a virtual lock at this point that Miami’s Cam Ward will be the first quarterback drafted — likely by the Titans with the first overall pick — and Sanders likely will be the second signal caller selected.

When the Yankees lost Gerrit Cole this spring to Tommy John surgery that will force him to miss the 2025 season (and likely most of 2026), as well as Luis Gil to a lat injury that figures to sideline him until at least June, general manager Brian Cashman said he would “rely on what we have.”
