Wednesday was a big day for four Ohio high school football players, who got a chance to workout with new Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders. According to the Akron Beacon Journal, the Browns 5th round pick in the recent draft, was looking for an opportunity to workout and asked trainer Ryan Adams if knew of anyone who could help him out.
According to the story, Adams called Walsh Jesuit wide receiver Milan Parris, a senior-to-be, who has given his verbal commitment to Iowa State. Soon, Parris, along with Glenville’s Pauly Sadler and Cleveland Height’s Devron Mills and LeMarques Greenwood II, a 2024 High School Football America Academic All-American, were working out at St. Ignatius High School.
Brad Bournival reported that Parris told him, “The drive there was definitely nerve-wracking,” Parris said. “I was going through all types of things in my head. I had to get my head together before I arrived. On the way back, I was in shock. My family was calling my phone and, honestly, I was just trying to soak it all in.”
The workout was captured by Parris and posted on his X account.
Last season Parris and his teammates led Walsh Jesuit to a No. 201 finish in the High School Football America 300, powered by NFL Play Football. The Warriors advanced to the state quarterfinals.
