Shedeur Sanders refused to sit in the shadows for the 2025 NFL Draft as the Colorado quarterback rocked an expensive chain around his neck while waiting for a team to pick him. The player is considered one of the better prospects in his position in this year’s class, competing with Jaxson Dart for the second-best signal-caller behind Cam Ward.
While there have been reports of Shedeur Sanders slipping down the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, the quarterback is backing himself with this latest piece of jewelry. It is a chain with a massive pendant that appears to read S2 (squared) in line with his initials. Fans had an immediate reaction to it, with some saying that it looked as if it was more expensive than whatever signing bonus he was supposed to get from his first NFL team.
Some others called it ridiculous in a positive sense. Here are some of the responses from X/Twitter.
