The Cleveland Browns need a quarterback, and Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders is seen as perhaps the top one in the 2025 NFL draft.
The big hangup, however, was whether or not Deion Sanders, the Colorado head coach and father of Shedeur, would meddle in his landing spot. Many wondered if Sanders, despite a tight fit with the scheme, would be open to playing in Cleveland as the new face of the Browns’ franchise.
However, it sure sounds like Deion has no issues with the Browns being the potential landing spot for his son:
“Sometimes we desire things that aren’t right from us. Whether he goes 1, 2, or 3, he’ll exceed all expectations. We weren’t praying that he would go 1, we were praying that he would go in the first round. Now he allowed me to understand that he wants to top his daddy. His daddy was the fifth pick. He wants to go one through four.”
It did not stop there for Deion either. He was also on the Rich Eisen show and even went as far as to say that he has already spoken with the Browns and the New York Giants, who hold picks No. 2 and 3 respectively in the 2025 NFL draft.
“I just wanna know… If you don’t get your ‘why’s answered, you’re gonna always be curious in life,” he said. “I like to get my ‘why’s’ answered because this is my guy. These are my kids.”

Tthe Sanders family, both Deion and Shedeur, are more than happy if the Browns were to select him with the No. 2 overall pick in the draft this upcoming April.
In need of a new quarterback, and one on a rookie contract at that as they navigate the difficulties of the Deshaun Watson situation, landing Sanders would be a massive win for the Browns.
