Robert Griffin III unloads on Browns for drafting Shedeur Sanders: ‘Set him up to fail’
NY Post
It hasn’t been a rosy start for Shedeur Sanders in the NFL.
After the Browns took him in the fifth round at No. 144 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft to end his stunning nosedive, Sanders is looking at an uphill battle toward success, according to Robert Griffin III.
The former NFL Rookie of the Year and Heisman winner explained why the Browns’ QB situation is “set up for dysfunction.”
“They have $230 million that won’t play,” Griffin explained on his X account, referring to Deshaun Watson’s bloated contract that will handicap the team for the next two seasons.
“Brought in 4 QBs this offseason and the last one they brought in, Shedeur Sanders, is the #1 selling jersey of all rookies despite being drafted in the 5th round after their 3rd round pick Dillon Gabriel.”
Sanders has been a lightning rod for attention since he first arrived at Colorado, and that has carried over to the NFL as fans have come out in droves to support him by buying his No. 12 jersey.
Dylan Garand knew the number off the top of his head. He knew that, between the regular season and playoffs, he’d logged over 160 games with AHL Hartford, and he was right. Before the Rangers recalled him Friday, Garand had served as the Wolf Pack’s goaltender 165 times.
