Shedeur Sanders isn’t settling.
After being the No. 144 pick in the NFL Draft after a historic slide, the former Colorado QB is aiming for the moon.
When Sanders visited public school students in Cleveland on Wednesday, he was asked his goals.
He didn’t mince words: “I’m trying to bring Cleveland a Super Bowl.”
To do so, Sanders will first have to make the team, then win the starting job, then finally exorcise the demons of the most quarterback-tortured franchise in NFL history.
The Browns won NFL titles before the merger, but they’ve never won a Super Bowl.
They’ve never even come all that close.

Sanders, the second QB they drafted just this year behind Dillon Gabriel, hasn’t been anointed the savior by everyone. In fact, some have shown him a lot of hate.
But there is a serious ability there from the quarterback who led Division I in completion percentage (74%) in 2024.
A Super Bowl is an impossibly high bar for a Cleveland QB, you’d think.
But Sanders doesn’t see a reason to aim low. Just because his draft stock fell doesn’t mean his goals fall with it.
Will we ever see the day Sanders predicts? It’s definitely hard to say.
But the first step is having the confidence to believe it, and in that, Sanders surely isn’t lacking.
