Shilo Sanders outlines backup plan as NFL career stalls
Summary

Shilo Sanders, an undrafted free agent who was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers nearly a year ago, has yet to find a new team. With a self-imposed deadline of next week, he indicates he may release a new music album if he remains unsigned. Despite impressive preseason performances, Sanders’ aggressive behavior led to his ejection from a game, and ultimately, his release. He also faces a trial linked to his bankruptcy case stemming from a lawsuit. His musical aspirations continue, as he released an album last year and has shown a lifelong passion for music.
