Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders 'Pissed' After NY Giants Interview, Drafts Late
Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders had a heated reaction to his pre-draft interview with the New York Giants. The Giants' draft strategy and Sanders' subsequent slide down the draft boards have raised eyebrows.
Sanders was reportedly 'pissed' after his interview with the Giants. The team did not select a quarterback early in the 2025 NFL draft, focusing on linemen and defensive backs instead. This decision, coupled with Sanders' perceived negative interview experience, may have contributed to his dramatic fall in the draft.
Sanders was eventually drafted in the fifth round, at No. 144 overall, by the Cleveland Browns. The Browns showed serious interest in Sanders, meeting with him privately and trading up to secure his services. Bears coach Ben Johnson was reportedly critical of the Giants' interview tactics, which may have influenced Sanders' reaction.
Sanders enters the NFL with a chip on his shoulder, motivated by teams that passed on him. His experience with the Giants and subsequent draft slide have fueled his determination to prove himself. The Browns, who drafted him, will now look to harness this motivation as they integrate Sanders into their team.
