Browns Owner Jimmy Haslam Shuts Down Speculation About Shedeur Sanders originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns were the team that took a shot on Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft, selecting him in the fifth round with the 144th overall pick.

Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam says he's not the one who drafted rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders. It was all general manager Andrew Berry's doing.

"At the end of the day, that's [general manager] Andrew Berry's call. Andrew made the call to pick Shedeur. Just like who's gonna start or what play we're gonna call is [head coach] Kevin [Stefanski]'s call. But that's Andrew's call. He made the call."
