Rocket Sanders was signed by the Los Angeles Chargers as an undrafted free agent in 2025. But he was ultimately waived as he failed to make the Chargers’ final roster.
A day later, the former Arkansas and South Carolina running back was signed by the Cleveland Browns. In Week 1, he was in the end zone celebrating his first NFL touchdown.
Sanders was called upon on a 4th and goal inside the Cincinnati Bengals’ 1-yard line after the Browns had failed to get it in on their last few tries. He took a handoff from Joe Flacco and punched it in right through the Bengals’ defense as the Browns tied it at 7 with just over 2 minutes played in the second quarter.
Here’s video of Sanders’ TD:
