Shedeur Sanders has become among the most sought-after players after his run in 2024. NFL teams with quarterbacking deficits are combing through Sanders’ life, and that includes the Cleveland Browns who have the second overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
NFL Fans React to Shedeur Sanders Potentially Coming to Cleveland
Some fans gathered outside Huntington Bank Field, the Browns’ home turf, were seen in the background during an interview regarding Myles Garrett.
However, some quick-witted Browns fans instinctively blurted out “Shedeur!” during the segment.
Sanders’ elder brother, Deion Sanders Jr. reacted to the clip, tweeting: “Cleveland Has Spoken!”

In light of this, a netizen commented that if Shedeur were to be drafted by the Browns, he’ll see more fame than an NBA legend: “If your brother comes to Cleveland and win a 🏆, he’d be bigger than Lebron.”
The slew of praise continued for the signal-caller in the comment section of the clip.
“Winning w the Giants is regular. I won’t be telling my kids who Eli Manning was. But being the QB who saves the Cleveland Browns? That’s Legendary!” another fan said.
“Party busses from Pittsburgh to Cleveland on Sunday for NFL football is a regular thing, I’d jump on 1 to see #2 play for the Browns,” a fan wrote, referring to Sanders’ Buffaloes jersey number.
“WE WOULD LOVE YALL BOYS IN OUR CITY TAP IN BRO🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥,” another fan echoed.
The franchise is also in need of defensive players given Garrett’s request for trade as of Feb. 3. Between a QB to compete with/replace Deshaun Watson, Travis Hunter still potentially around at No. 2, and the top defender available, the Browns are in quite the predicament for rebuilding the team.
One fan wondered if they’d take a Houston Texans-esque approach: “Imagine if they trade Titans for the First pick & draft Travis & Shedeur 🤣🤣,” a fan wondered.
Another fan mentioned the Browns losing Garrett, who cited his reason for leaving due to his “desire to win.” Cleveland has a lot to fix after going from Joe Flacco’s playoff run in 2023 to a 3-14 season with an anemic offense. The team would need to get more playmakers for their new quarterback and make their defense stronger again.
“After seeing the Mavericks fans you can’t blame the Browns fans for fighting to keep Myles Garrett so that they don’t lose him like Mavericks fans lost Luka Doncic to the Lakers!!” The fan said, talking about the 2024 NBA MVP.
Meanwhile, Sanders, who completed his 2024 campaign with 4,134 yards and 37 touchdowns, also responded to the Cleveland fans hitting his signature pose, calling it “legendary.”
