The Cleveland Browns may have found a jewel at the end of the round to Shedeur Sanders, but his surprising fall in the fifth round of the NFL 2025 draft did not go unnoticed – especially by no one other than Tom Brady.
During an appearance on the Podcast of Logan Paul, Impaulsif, Brady shared a personal moment of Draft Weekend. Speaking with the co-host Mike Majlak, the seven time champion of the Super Bowl revealed that He actually sent a text Sanders in the middle of his slide, offering words of encouragement.
“I actually sent a text to Sheder because I know him very well,” said Brady. “And I said,” Dude, whatever happens, wherever you go, it’s your first day. Day 2 has more than the project. I had 199. So who can talk about it better than me?
Brady’s message to Sanders was more than friendly advice – it was a past torch. While the Browns quarterrier is now faced with a long way to starting status, Brady’s career serves as a ultimate plan. Written the 199th in total itself, Brady stressed that perseverance prevails over the line of the line.
“Use it as motivation. You will get your chances and take advantage of it. ”

Originally projected as a choice among the first five, Sanders shocked the draft analysts by falling to choose n ° 144. The Browns had already taken Dillion Gabriel in the third round, which raised other eyebrows. However, with the support of Brady and a chip on his shoulder, Sanders enters Cleveland with something to prove.
In particular, many expected Sanders to land with the Raiders of Las Vegas, given the minority property of Brady and the past mentorship. However, raiders – like others – have passed, letting the Browns grab the moment.
While some have questioned its interview and decision-making projects, the former quarter of Colorado now has the opportunity to write its own path. Supported by Brady’s belief and hunger to challenge expectations, he could transform this slip project into a decisive career chapter.
For the Browns, it was not only a choice – it could have been their most important for a very long time.
