A recent report claimed Coach Prime and quarterback Shedeur Sanders were hoping for the New York Giants to draft him this April. But Deion quickly shot that down, calling the claim “a lie” in an Instagram comment.

The report, which originated from at a ProMat conference in Chicago, had no video or audio evidence, making it questionable from the start.

The Giants recent signing of Russell Wilson further complicates things. Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler, agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, likely making him New York’s starter in 2025. That could push the Giants away from drafting a quarterback, leaving teams like the Cleveland Browns as potential landing spots for Shedeur.

While the internet may be quick to run with rumors, Coach Prime has made one thing clear: Shedeur isn’t picking favorites—he’s just waiting for his name to be called.
