2022 NFL Draft prospect profile - Myjai Sanders, EDGE, Cincinnati

Cincinnati EDGE Myjai Sanders’ trajectory over the course of the 2021 season and through the 2022 NFL Draft process has certainly been a roller coaster.

Sanders was largely overlooked to start the 2021 season, but rose to prominence along with the Bearcats’ rise to the College Football Playoffs. Sanders was an integral part of a defense that played a big role in Cincinnati’s undefeated season. However, he seemed to sink down draft boards over the next few months.

Sanders was smaller than expected at the Reese’s Senior Bowl, and while he performed well enough in practices, questions began to creep in.
