Leave it to Shedeur Sanders to make headlines without even throwing a pass! The Colorado quarterback — and son of NFL legend Deion Sanders — became the unexpected star of the 2025 NFL Combine in Indianapolis, not for his drills, but for his backpack fashion choice.

The Hat Game That’s Got Everyone Talking

Spotted strutting outside, Sanders had not one, not two, but three NFL team hats dangling from his bag — repping the Cleveland Browns, Minnesota Vikings, and New Orleans Saints. Was this a strategic move to fuel draft rumors, or just Shedeur adding a little swag to his combine look? The internet, of course, went wild.

Social Media Can’t Get Enough of Shedeur Sanders's Hat Flex

Of course, the internet didn’t hold back, with fans taking to X (formerly Twitter) to roast, speculate, and meme the moment:

“Why would he wanna go to any of those trash teams?”

“I like that even though there is the potential of ending up with a lousy organization he’s open to playing for the Vikings.”

“"His options" lol... He is the option.”
It’s clear — whether it was calculated or just a playful moment, Sanders had the crowd (and the timeline) eating it up.
Cleveland has the No. 2 pick in the draft and is actively seeking a new quarterback after Deshaun Watson’s departure. Could Shedeur be signaling he's ready to step into that role?
Minnesota holds a mid-round pick and might be in the market for their next franchise QB. Is Shedeur hinting at a purple future?
With a late first-round pick, New Orleans would likely have to trade up to land Sanders. Was this a subtle nudge for the Saints to make a move?
Intentional or not, the hat selection was prime draft drama.

What’s Next for Shedeur Sanders?

With the draft creeping closer, Shedeur Sanders has officially entered the chat — and not just for his football skills. The question remains:

Was this a fashion statement or a subliminal message to his future team?
Will one of these hat teams pull the trigger on draft day?

One thing’s for sure — Shedeur Sanders is keeping everyone guessing, and we're absolutely here for the ride.
Stay tuned — because when it comes to Shedeur, the draft drama is just getting started.
