Jason and Travis Kelce analyze the fall of Shedeur Sanders in the Draft and react to his arrival in Cleveland

The 2025 NFL Draft was expected to be a historic one for former Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who had once been projected as a potential top-three selection.

Instead, Sanders experienced one of the most dramatic falls in recent draft memory, slipping all the way to the fifth round before the Cleveland Browns scooped him up with the No. 144 overall pick.

Shedeur Sanders arrives at Browns facility in casual fit

For brothers Travis and Jason Kelce, Sanders‘ unexpected landing spot sparked a passionate discussion on the latest episode of their New Heights podcast.

While the NFL world debated why Sanders had fallen so far, the Kelce brothers were locked in on what the Browns may have gained.

“I love this for Cleveland, god I love this for Cleveland,” Travis said. “I really do man. The Browns fan deep down in my heart is just like f*** yeah. You get a swag champ that works his ass off that has something to prove now-not that he didn’t before, but he’s got that chip on his shoulder, I’m sure, because of how much he’s dropped.”

Jason agreed, noting that Sanders will now carry a huge chip with him into the league.

“How could you not,” Jason said. “If you’re at all a self-confident person who believes in themselves, and you’re touted by a lot of people, and you have the college career that he had, how could you not be upset that you fell this far?

“Still should be happy that you’re in the NFL, but there’s a lot of quarterbacks that were taken above him. There’s a quarterback that the Browns selected above him: Dillon Gabriel was selected in the third round.”

Travis blasts anonymous criticism

Reports from anonymous NFL executives suggested that Shedeur‘s pre-draft interviews went poorly, and that teams quietly removed him from their boards. That idea didn’t sit well with Travis.

“I think whoever’s the fing anonymous person that’s fing saying this should fing come out and say who they were. Like what the f is that about,” Travis said.

“If you’re gonna fing leak that type of st, fing be the one that says ‘yeah it just didn’t go well for us’ don’t fing say that we’re anonymous, that’s so f**ing lame. I don’t know I just feel like there’s no validity to it. I’m not sure why he dropped, I’m not sure whether it was the interviews or whether it was stuff they saw on film. What I saw on film, I thought he was a way higher pick and I think that’s all that should matter.

“It doesn’t seem like he’s a terrible person, it just seems like he’s a motivated football player that’s a part of a big football family, and him and his father have kinda taken over the NCAA football for the past 3-4 years… I can see him working his ass off and becoming the starting quarterback in Cleveland at some point.”

NBA Cup live updates: Thunder leading Suns; Spurs-Lakers up later

Few double-digit leads in the NBA seem safe these days. Still, it feels like a long time since I’ve seen a first half take a 180-degree turn the way Tuesday night’s Heat-Magic quarterfinal did.Miami stormed to a 15-0 lead, and Orlando could not generate any stops or turnovers and, therefore, could not push forward in transition. If the last few seasons have taught the NBA nothing else about the Magic (other than how hard the team plays and its physicality, especially on defense), it’s that their offense has been weak when opponents force them to play in the half-court.Orlando no doubt initially felt the absence of its best two-way player, Franz Wagner, who suffered a left high-ankle sprain Sunday. Without Wagner, the Magic looked rudderless … at first.What changed?The Magic finally ramped up their defense, keyed by Jonathan Isaac off […]

Michigan coaching candidates: Kalen DeBoer, Marcus Freeman among options after sudden Sherrone Moore firing

As soon as it seemed like the college football coaching carousel was finally slowing down, Michigan announced it had fired Sherrone Moore for cause after an investigation revealed an inappropriate relationship with a staffer. The Wolverines becoming a late entry to the coaching search fray throws a real wrench in this offseason. We saw a ton of coaches sign fresh contract extensions after turning down openings at Penn State, Florida and Auburn, but Michigan may be a different beast. It is one of the best jobs in the country in terms of resources, and teams with a top-tier coach they haven't locked into an extension already may have to get ready to fight to keep their coach in town. Michigan hired Moore to keep things on track after Jim Harbaugh left for the NFL, but they never quite reached those same heights, […]

David Pastrnak’s return ignites Bruins as Jets fight slump

Mandatory Credit: Jeff Curry-Imagn Images The Boston Bruins go for their second straight win since David Pastrnak's return from injury and fourth in a row overall when they continue a three-game road swing through the Central Division with a Thursday night visit to the Winnipeg Jets. The 29-year-old Pastrnak showed no ill effects from a five-game injury absence in the Bruins' 5-2 win Tuesday over former coach Jim Montgomery's St. Louis Blues, recording three assists, three shots and a plus-2 rating while skating alongside 23-year-old Marat Khusnutdinov and 21-year-old Fraser Minten (two goals) on the third line. "Just three young kids playing together," Pastrnak joked. "It was fun." Pastrnak's return meant additional lineup […]

NFL predictions: How Week 15 Thursday Night Football matchup vs. Falcons impacts Buccaneers’ playoff chances

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers won five of their first six games of the 2025 NFL season and gave the impression that they would cruise to their fifth consecutive NFL South title and the 11th division crown in franchise history. But they've lost five of their last seven contests and are clinging to first place, with a pair of crucial matchups against the Carolina Panthers remaining on their schedule.Before worrying about those showdowns, Tampa Bay (7-6) must take care of business against another division rival as it opens Week 15 by hosting the Atlanta Falcons (4-9) at 8:15 p.m. ET on Thursday Night Football at Raymond James Stadium. The Buccaneers dropped a 24-20 decision to the lowly New Orleans Saints at home last week and are tied for first place in the NFC South with the Panthers (7-6), who upset the […]

Sherrone Moore buyout: What’s left on the Michigan coach’s contract after he was fired ‘for cause’

Imagn Images Sherrone Moore's tenure as Michigan's coach came to an abrupt end on Wednesday after he was fired. Moore was terminated for cause by the school after an internal investigation concluded the Wolverines' coach had engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. "Sherrone Moore has been terminated, with cause, effective immediately," Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel said in a statement. "Following a university investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and UM maintains zero tolerance for such behavior."Moore was tabbed Michigan's coach at the conclusion of the 2023 season after Jim Harbaugh departed to coach the Los Angeles Chargers.
