“This isn’t an accident”: Fans stir up Shedeur Sanders to Browns rumors after his latest Insta post goes viral

Shedeur Sanders has fueled speculation about a potential future with the Cleveland Browns after his latest Instagram post went viral. The top quarterback prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft has been linked to the Browns multiple times, playing as the Browns in Madden, meeting with them and even wearing their hat.

On Thursday, Nick Karns, co-host of The Barking Browns Show, shared a screenshot of Sanders’ Instagram story featuring Cleveland Guardians infielder Travis Bazzana. The post reignited rumors, with fans chiming in on social media.

“This isn’t an accident,” Karns wrote on X.

"I’m begging the Browns to draft this guy. He’s just Teddy Bridgewater 2.0,” another fan added.

"He’s campaigning of course, because the higher he’s picked the better for him financially. I don’t think its because the Browns have told him he’s definitely going to be picked, or that he suddenly loves the Browns,” one fan wrote.

Other fans wrote:

“He knows what he’s doing. He knows the Browns fan base is the most pathetic, delusional, hopeful, faithful fan base in sports history. If he is loved by Cleveland, he will make a LOT of money,” a fan commented.

“The only reason Shedeur wants to be drafted by the Cleveland Browns - because he knows he's not going #1. He ONLY wants to be drafted higher than his father - who went 5th overall. Its his pride and ego on the line and you guys are buying into the hype, like some drug fiends,” one wrote.

“They’re a lot of QB’s in this draft, I like Sanders however I don’t know if he’s higher in the pecking order than 5th. He has moments of top ten talent but is he worth the #2 pick. I say get Carter then grab a QB in the third round. They’ll be plenty there,” a fan wrote.

With the Browns holding the No. 2 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, all eyes are on Cleveland’s next move.

“I like how (the Browns) move around,” Sanders said, according to ESPN. "I like the setup."

His interest in the Browns goes beyond video games. Sanders scheduled his first pre-draft visit with Cleveland, hinting at a potential connection.
