Isaiah Simmons lauds Shedeur Sanders ability to transform things if Giants draft him

Teammates Malik Nabers and Isaiah Simmons walked into a jewelry store and stumbled into maybe the Giants’ next gem.Shedeur Sanders, the potential No.1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, was sitting in a New York City business Friday night when Nabers and Simmons made a stop on their Christmas shopping spree.

You see how many yards he has and how many different people have thrown him the ball this year.To me, it’s pretty impressive.
