After being selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns, QB Shedeur Sanders signed a four-year rookie contract worth $4.6 million. And in true Sanders fashion, he celebrated his $450,000 signing bonus with a flashy present.
Following a draft slide that saw him slip down draft boards to the fifth round, Sanders has done his best to remind people that he was a projected top-10 pick for a reason. While the Browns likely won’t start him in Week 1, Sanders had a great showing at his rookie camp.

There’s making a statement, and then there’s pulling up to Browns minicamp in a half-a-million-dollar Rolls-Royce painted in olive green and Cleveland orange. And Shedeur Sanders did just that.
The rookie QB didn’t waste time after his NFL contract. But this is not the first time he has owned a Rolls in his team colors either. While at Colorado, Sanders already had a black-and-gold Rolls-Royce to match his Buffaloes uniform.

Now with Cleveland, he’s stepped it up. His new car, seen in a video posted by his older brother, comes in at over $500,000. But Sanders isn’t just about the flash, although that million-dollar chain and cash-filled draft party beg to differ.
Sanders has even bid adieu to his iconic No. 2 jersey in favour of No. 12 and told fans to roll with the change. He seems to be focused on his game. But that is not going to be easy considering the fact that the Browns’ QB room is stacked.
For starters, he’ll have to beat out fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel, who is looking to start. Then there are also seasoned vets like Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett. It’s a loaded QB room, and only one can come out on top.
But the rookies don’t seem to be in any drama mode. Their public persona is a rather unified one, and it seems like there is real camaraderie between the newcomers. That said, the Browns aren’t here for bromance alone.

With two first-round picks next year, Cleveland’s front office is watching closely. If neither Sanders nor Gabriel comes through, they will not hesitate to look elsewhere. Perhaps even at a future gunslinger like Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza or South Carolina’s LaNorris Sellers.
Still, Shedeur Sanders is winning, and now everybody knows it. The flash, the car, the confidence, it all seems like a chapter out of the Sanders playbook. But if he wants to be more than a headline, he’ll have to back it all up between the lines, because in the NFL, a Rolls-Royce might catch the eye. But only a good arm can win games.
