Rex Ryan’s ‘Embarrassment’ Critique of Shedeur Sanders Draws Public Pushback From Sanders Family

The rookie Browns quarterback remains low on Cleveland’s depth chart without a start, prompting debate over whether the on-air rebuke was fair.

Overview

  • Speaking on ESPN’s Get Up, Rex Ryan called Sanders an “embarrassment,” urged him to study, and said he should be embarrassed not to be the Browns’ starter.
  • Pilar Sanders condemned Ryan’s comments on Instagram as “impotent, cancerous, envious energy” in a post that was removed soon after, according to reports.
  • Deion Sanders posted supportive messages on X and Instagram telling his son to refocus, avoid distractions, and reclaim his best form.
  • Sanders, a fifth-round pick in 2025, is reported to sit fourth on Cleveland’s depth chart behind Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dillon Gabriel and has yet to start.
  • In the Browns’ 34-10 loss to the Lions in Week 4, Sanders stayed on the sideline as Flacco started and Gabriel saw late action, per outlet reports.
