He hasn’t even taken a snap yet, and Shedeur Sanders’ NFL journey has already been extremely unique. Hyped as a potential first-round pick, Sanders fell all the way to the fifth round, where the Cleveland Browns ended his free-fall with the 144th overall pick.
While late-round picks already face long odds, that’s especially true for Sanders, despite being the son of Hall of Fame legend Deion Sanders. It doesn’t help that there are three other quarterbacks ahead of Shedeur on Cleveland’s depth chart, and they were all acquired this offseason.
However, Sanders hasn’t helped his cause by getting into a bit of trouble with the law. Specifically, he got a pair of speeding tickets earlier this month.
Shedeur’s recent driving record even drew some criticism from his brother, Shilo, who signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after going undrafted in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Shilo made the comments while appearing in an episode of his Tampa Food Tour, where the Buccaneers’ rookie can be seen getting a taste of his new football town.
While Shedeur may not find the comments to be too funny, it’s clear Shilo was simply giving his brother a hard time after his recent run-ins with the law.
Tales like this are common in the offseason when players aren’t completely focused on their football careers. Yet, Shedeur has already made a strong impression on his coaches in Cleveland. Though, the Browns would likely prefer he makes more headlines on the field than off.
