The haters love to say Shedeur Sanders is a bad teammate with a bad attitude. Quinshon Judkins, who was recently spared from a potential fine by his new backfieldmate, would disagree.

He would be out a few thousand dollars without him!

Sanders is the most polarizing rookie in the NFL even though he was not drafted until the fifth round. Everybody and their mother has an opinion about the son of Deion Sanders and they are not going to waver from their beliefs about who he is as a person or how good he is as a player.

Some people think he will be the guy to right the ship in Cleveland. Others believe the Browns took on an unnecessary media circus for a quarterback who is only famous because of his last name.

Quinshon Judkins is grateful for Shedeur Sanders.

Both players were in attendance at the NFLPA Rookie Premiere, presented by Panini. The annual event serves as a gathering of the rookies for media and trading card purposes. It is their first opportunity to wear the full team uniform. They do various drills for the camera.

Judkins and Sanders got ready together in the locker room. The fifth-round quarterback went live on Twitch as they put the finish touches on their outfits. He also saved the second-round running back from a firm slap on the wrist and/or a potential fine!

Shedeur Sanders reminded Quinshon Judkins to wear the socks required by the Cleveland Browns and the NFL. The latter pushed back at first. The former kept him in check.

Tyreek Hill received a total of $7,000 in fines last season because of his socks. They did not comply with the league’s uniform rules. He has since agreed to wear the required uniform.

Judkins does not make Hill money. A fine of even half that amount would cut into his rookie paycheck! Fortunately, Sanders saved the day.
