Summary

Rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders marked a pivotal moment in his NFL career Sunday by throwing his first touchdown pass. The scoring play was a remarkable 66-yard swing pass to running back Dylan Sampson, who broke free for an untouched journey into the end zone.
This significant achievement came after Sanders' initial NFL start in Week 11, where he faced challenges. However, with a week of preparation, he displayed greater command of the offense, also connecting on a 52-yard pass earlier in the game.
Beyond the touchdown, Sanders surpassed the 200-yard passing mark for the game. Crucially, he demonstrated improved decision-making, largely avoiding the turnovers and sacks that plagued his previous outing, highlighting his development as a player.
