"So whenever that is, it is, but it doesn't make me feel down, or it doesn't make me feel left our or anything because I know who I am as a person. I know who I am as an individual, and I know what I could bring to this team. So I can never feel less than, you know, in any circumstance," he added.The situation surrounding Sanders' future with the Browns continues to remain a mystery.
