TN’s recruiting analyst NoleThruandThru had this to say about “Rocket” in our wide receiver piece earlier this spring:
Sanders is nicknamed “Rocket” for a reason—his highlights show that once he has a step on his defender, they’ll have an excellent view of the back of his jersey, as he pulls away, making them look foolish. While the previous prospects all profile solely as receivers, Sanders is versatile enough to see time in the backfield, as well.
