Deion Sanders Shares New Photo of Son Shedeur That Shifts All Negative Talk Around Browns QB
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
Deion Sanders isn’t letting anyone write off his son without a fight. Shedeur Sanders carved up the Titans for 393 total yards and four total touchdowns in the defeat. That stat line put him in rare company: only Joe Burrow had matched those rookie numbers before Sunday.
The Colorado head coach hit Instagram on Monday with a photo that flipped the script on Sunday’s heartbreak: Shedeur mid-stride after his final touchdown toss against Tennessee, brother Deion Jr. throwing in pure celebration behind him. The caption kept it short: “Amazing picture from the last touchdown throw.”
But what happened in the comments turned into something bigger than the 31-29 loss that’s got Cleveland talking.
The Instagram post lit up fast, and Browns fans came ready to defend their fifth-round steal.
One fan got straight to it. “If pictures spoke- this one says a lot!”
Another didn’t need many words. “That boy ‘grown.’”
A third fired back at the doubters, “Keep shining, young prince!! THEY can’t stop you!!”
One fan zeroed in on Sanders’ expression. “Look in his eyes. HE’S READY!!!!!”
Another dropped just one word. “Legendary.”
One commenter framed the bigger picture. “It’s the biggest story of the NFL 2025 season. How Shedeur was fumbled by the Browns, and still he Rised.”
Another didn’t mince words. “They’re hating on Shedeur so much, they’d rather lose than let him get his shine on!!!”
And finally, this user brought the streets into it. “The whole hood behind u keep winning.”
“What was working for me, I’ll say, God,” Sanders said postgame. “When it’s a lot of confusion, when it’s a lot of adversity, when it’s a lot of things going on, that’s when I feel like God steps in the most for me.” He also called the entire night a testimony, insisting it showed people who he really is. Sanders took the blame for his fumbled snap and interception but refused to second-guess Stefanski’s call, saying, “Sometimes you gotta run the ball. Sometimes you’ve got to kick a field goal.”
Deion Sanders Doesn’t Do Subtle When His Family’s Involved
The game ended with Sanders watching from the sideline as head coach Kevin Stefanski called a botched direct-snap play on a two-point conversion, pulling his quarterback off the field after an 80-yard scoring drive in freezing rain.
Deion took to X after the game with a pointed message: “Believe Believe Believe! When someone shows u who they are Believe them. You may be uncomfortable & it may pierce your heart but the pain u feel right now is far less than the damage u will encounter in the future.”
He tagged his kids and added, “Pick your head up & keep your composure baby. GO!” Translation? Stefanski showed his cards, and Coach Prime saw everything he needed to see.

Sanders battled from fourth-string to starter anyway, working through cuts, trades, and a concussion to Dillon Gabriel just to get his shot. Now he’s posted the best rookie performance since Burrow, and Stefanski still pulled him when it mattered most.
