Shilo Sanders' NFL journey now includes an unplanned foray into free agency ahead of the 2025 season. His agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey, confirmed to ESPN's Adam Schefter the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are waiving him ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET roster deadline.

According to a report from NFL insider Jordan Schultz, Tampa Bay has decided to waive Sanders. He has officially not made the roster and will look to land with another team before the start of the regular season. It's a tough break for Sanders. Unfortunately, he just didn't do enough to make the team.

If none of the NFL’s other 31 teams pick up Shilo Sanders, he could still have a future in pro football. The Toronto Argonauts, who play in the Canadian Football League, have reportedly added him to their negotiating list. They had previously added Shedeur Sanders to the same list.
