Shedeur Sanders reacts to being praised by President Trump.
During the NFL draft, Trump was a vocal supporter of Shedeur and his father, Deion Sanders.
“What is wrong with NFL owners, are they STUPID? Deion Sanders was a great college football player, and was even greater in the NFL. He’s also a very good coach, streetwise and smart! Therefore, Shedeur, his quarterback son, has PHENOMENAL GENES, and is all set for Greatness. He should be “picked” IMMEDIATELY by a team that wants to WIN. Good luck Shedeur, and say hello to your wonderful father!”
On Sunday, after Sanders picked up his first win, Trump once again heaped praise on Shedeur.
“Shedeur Sanders was GREAT,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Wins first game, career start, as a pro (for Cleveland). Great Genes. I TOLD YOU SO!”
On Wednesday, Shedeur was asked about Trump’s comments, and he was appreciative of the President supporting him.
“He’s definitely been a supporter for a minute, so I’m just thankful for him even taking time out of his day to speak out his support.”
