Deion Sanders Accuses People Of 'Lying' Before NFL Draft

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders defended his son Shedeur after the quarterback unexpectedly dropped to the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, where the Cleveland Browns then moved up to select him.
Shedeur, once considered a potential first-round pick, faced reports of unprofessional interview behavior, including allegedly being unprepared and distracted during pre-draft meetings.
Despite criticism, Deion disputed claims of unpreparedness, stating Shedeur adapted through multiple coaching changes and condemning false narratives on a podcast appearance.
A longtime NFL assistant described his interview with Shedeur as the most difficult formal meeting he has experienced, while the Browns have commended Sanders for his positive attitude and strong work ethic recently.
Shedeur now enters a quarterback competition with Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dillon Gabriel on the Browns, aiming to prove doubters wrong after his draft slide.
