Cleveland Browns Quarterback Sheeteur Sanders contested a post on social media that said he had bought a luxury vehicle after signing his rookie contract with the organization.
A video sent on X showed a “custom Rolls-Royce” on a flat-bottomed truck delivered to a house. It’s unclear if home was in the video. In a split second, Sanders’ face appeared on a phone.
The vehicle was allegedly worth $ 500,000.

When the clips became viral, Sanders put the rumors to rest.
“Another lie…. I’m focused on my team not a car purchase!” He wrote in a post on X.
Sanders accepted a four-year contract with Browns after Cleveland chose him in the fifth round of the NFL draft in April. He was predicted to be a first round pick as high as No. 2 before his slide, which received national attention.

He is ready to earn more than $ 4.6 million during the agreement with an average annual value of just over $ 1.1 million, according to Spotrac. He reportedly will earn $ 840,000 as his base in 2025. Sanders has already come to work this spring as he is not sure to make the 53-man list when the training camp is over.
He was asked back on May 10 how he was able to block attention and media study.
“By doing what my dad bred me to do when I was five years old,” he said. “You know I’ve seen what I’ve seen what he was able to do. And I have a lot of good resources and mentors, you know, to keep me on the right track and especially get to this building, we have good coaches in the building that are capable of, you know to keep me focused, keep me in a straight, narrow line.”

Cleveland has four healthy quarterbacks on the schedule, including Sanders, Dillon Gabriel, Joe Flacco and Dillon Gabriel. Deshaun Watson will probably not play in 2025.
