Overview

• Deion Sanders said on the New Heights podcast that Shedeur told Baltimore to pass at No. 141 in April’s draft.
• He added that the Philadelphia Eagles contacted Shedeur during the draft before Cleveland selected him.
• ESPN previously reported the Ravens planned to take Shedeur at No. 141, and that he did not want to join a roster led by Lamar Jackson.
• Cleveland traded up to pick Shedeur at No. 144, and he is third on the Browns’ depth chart behind Joe Flacco and Dillon Gabriel.
• Deion defended the decision against a long-term backup role, while analysts argue a stint behind Jackson might have increased Shedeur’s future value.
