Shedeur Sanders had his best game of the season in his third start for the Cleveland Browns over the weekend, but the chatter on social media had less to do with his performance and more to do with speculation about what the rookie quarterback was wearing.
A screenshot of Sanders circulated on social media after the Browns’ 31-29 loss to the Tennessee Titans. The image sparked speculation about whether Sanders was wearing a certain type of underwear.

“Let’s get to the point, bro. Did you wear a thong or not?” the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive back asked with a laugh.
“Come on, bro. You forgot I have a back injury, right? So they bandaged my back,” Sanders said. “But it’s crazy that he looked like that. It’s funny though.”
Shilo noted that he never believed social media rumors, which Sanders laughed at and added, “That’s weird.”

BROWNS WILL START SHEDEUR SANDERS AS QB FOR REST OF 2025 SEASON
Despite the viral rumors, Sanders recorded his best game so far this season with a 364-yard performance that included three touchdowns and another rushing score. His passing yards marked the second-most for a rookie quarterback taken 144th overall or later since 1966.
“He fought the whole game, and we knew he would,” head coach Kevin Stefanski said. “With any young player, there’s going to be ups and downs, and I thought there were some really, really good moments. He’s still going to learn from some of the plays he wants to make up, but some really good moments.”
