Deion Sanders responds to claim son Shedeur blew $447K signing bonus from Browns on $500K Rolls-Royce

Deion Sanders responds to claim son Shedeur blew $447K signing bonus from Browns on $500K Rolls-Royce

No, Cleveland Browns rookie Shedeur Sanders did not blow his $447,000 signing bonus on a custom Rolls-Royce, according to the quarterback’s father and former college head coach, Deion Sanders.

Coach Prime made the comment in response to an online aggregator, who repeated the rumor on X.

‘Lies!’ the Colorado Buffaloes head coach wrote in the thread.

Unfortunately, Deion did not expand on his answer, leaving some unanswered questions about the dark green sedan that was delivered the family’s Texas ranch.

Footage of the delivery was captured and produced for YouTube by Shedeur’s brother, Deion Jr. Although Shedeur isn’t there to receive the luxury vehicle, he is seen discussing it with Deion Jr. via Facetime.

‘It’s cool,’ a voice, likely Shedeur’s, is heard saying over the speaker phone.

An exact price tag isn’t visible, but USA Today reported the custom Rolls-Royce is rumored to be in the range of $500,000.

Shedeur recently signed a four-year, $4.6 million deal that included his $447,000 signing bonus – which represents the only guaranteed portion of the deal.

That’s significant, because if Shedeur is facing a crowded depth chart at quarterback as he attempts to make the Browns as a rookie. The team currently has veteran Joe Flacco, journeyman backup Kenny Pickett and injured former starter Deshaun Watson, not to mention Shedeur’s fellow rookie, Dillon Gabriel.

ESPN’s Daniel Oyefusi believes that Sanders’ roster spot isn’t ‘guaranteed’ and projects he’ll have to improve to move up the depth chart.

Sanders’ stunning downfall at last month’s draft has largely been blamed on a supposed atтιтude problem he displayed during meetings with league teams. His supporters, including President Donald Trump, argued the decorated pᴀsser should have been drafted earlier, while detractors think Sanders lacks the talent to overcome his perceived personality issues.

Former NFL MVP Boomer Esiason has since claimed on his morning radio show that Sanders slipped from a projected first-round pick to No. 144 because teams didn’t want an ‘enтιтled person.’ Other league insiders reported Sanders intentionally botched interviews with certain teams he didn’t want to play with.

The fall may have cost Shedeur around $40 million over the life of his first NFL contract.

Fortunately, Sheduer made a reported $6.5 million in name, image and likeness deals during his time at Jackson State and Colorado.
