Jimmy Haslam has largely gotten credit for the Browns' decision to pick Shedeur Sanders. But the Browns co-owner said Tuesday he did not push Cleveland GM Andrew Berry to choose Sanders.

Browns Owner Jimmy Haslam Shuts Down Speculation About Shedeur Sanders originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns were the team that took a shot on Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft, selecting him in the fifth round with the 144th overall pick.

"At the end of the day, that's [general manager] Andrew Berry's call. Andrew made the call to pick Shedeur. Just like who's gonna start or what play we're gonna call is [head coach] Kevin [Stefanski]'s call. But that's Andrew's call. He made the call."
