The Cleveland Browns have been linked to several quarterback prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft, including Shedeur Sanders. However, a recent report suggesting that the Browns, along with the Tennessee Titans and New York Giants, influenced Sanders’ decision to skip practice sessions at the East-West Shrine Bowl has been shut down by Browns General Manager Andrew Berry.
Berry addressed the rumors in an interview with sports writer Mary Kay Cabot, stating that the report was “not true” and that the Browns did not request Sanders to skip practice. Berry also emphasized that Sanders’ decision would not affect the team’s evaluation of him as a prospect.
“I don’t know where that report came from. That’s not true. That’s not a request that we made. With that being said, I want to be clear: whether he participated (in the practices) or not, that would have no bearing on how we think of him. But I don’t know where that came from,” Berry stated.
The situation has raised eyebrows, particularly given the relatively quiet quarterback class in this year’s draft. Sanders and Miami’s Cam Ward are two of the top quarterback prospects, and teams are likely to be cautious in their evaluation of both players.
While Berry’s comments have helped to clarify the situation, the rumor mill is likely to continue churning as the NFL Draft approaches. The Browns, Titans, and Giants are all expected to be in the market for a quarterback, and Sanders and Ward are likely to be two of the most highly sought-after prospects.
In other news, the Browns have been busy evaluating prospects at the Senior Bowl, where they have been impressed by several players, including a potential wide receiver prospect who made an impressive catch during practice.
The Browns’ offseason is shaping up to be an interesting one, with several key decisions to be made in the coming weeks. With the NFL Draft just around the corner, fans will be eagerly awaiting the team’s next move.
As the Browns continue to evaluate prospects and make key decisions, one thing is clear: the team is committed to building a winning roster, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
The 2025 NFL Draft is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in recent years, with several top prospects available. The Browns, Titans, and Giants are all likely to be major players in the draft, and fans will be eagerly awaiting the outcome.
In conclusion, Andrew Berry’s comments have helped to clarify the situation surrounding Shedeur Sanders and the East-West Shrine Bowl. While the rumor mill is likely to continue churning, one thing is clear: the Browns are committed to building a winning roster, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
