STRONGSVILLE, Ohio — Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders has been ticketed for speeding twice this month in Ohio.
Sanders was accused of driving a Dodge TRX pickup truck 101 mph in the Cleveland suburbs earlier this week. The Strongsville Police Department stopped Sanders at 12:30 a.m. Tuesday in a 60 mph zone on Interstate 71 near the Ohio Turnpike, according to a report provided to local media.
The 23-year-old Sanders could pay a $250 fine to waive the fourth-degree misdemeanor case, according to police, but it wasn’t the first time he’s been pulled over for allegedly speeding since joining the Browns.
He was previously ticketed after being stopped by the Ohio State Patrol on June 5 in Brunswick Hills. Sanders was pulled over for going 91 mph in a 65 mph zone, the OSP told WKBN-TV. According to Medina Municipal Court records, Sanders failed to appear for an arraignment for that ticket Monday and owes $269 in court costs.
Browns spokesman Peter John-Baptiste said in a statement issued to The Associated Press on Thursday that “the team has addressed the tickets directly with Sanders and the tickets will be handled by him in the appropriate manner.”
