Is Raheim 'Rocket' Sanders related to Shedeur? Browns' rookie RB seeing more playing time vs. Bills image

The Cleveland Browns were deep down their running back depth chart on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills.

Dylan Sampson was already out, and Quinshon Judkins left with an injury. That left Raheim "Rocket" Sanders and Trayveon Williams to play the second half for the Browns.

With Shedeur Sanders playing QB, that raised a key question.

Is Raheim 'Rocket' Sanders related to Shedeur?

No, Raheim isn't related to Shedeur.

They have the same last name, and play for the same team, and are both rookies, but that's it.

Raheim "Rocket" Sanders isn't related to any of the other Sanders in the NFL.

He was undrafted out of South Carolina, spent the preseason with the Chargers and then came to the Cleveland Browns for the regular season.

Rocket actually scored a Week 1 TD before spending most of the season on the practice squad.

Now, though, he could be important the rest of the season.
