Shedeur Sanders revealed quite a bit about his academic and pro football future on November 4. Regarding the latter, well, he's going pro as soon as he's eligible following the conclusion of the 2024 season.

On the former? Well, he's not taking classes ever again.

We know the "Grown QB" is excited about it after he proclaimed he was going to the league and forgoing a fifth year of eligibility. But he later clarified that he's graduating early; perhaps a PR move from his reps after he made the University of Colorado Boulder look bad, undermining university coursework.

We all got a pretty intimate look into a CU student-athlete's life. It probably wasn't supposed to be a viral trend, and it's probably not something school officials likely appreciated. But we also got to confirm what we've all long believed: many NFL-bound superstars seemingly don't give a damn about classes.

Shedeur Sanders' social media trend may tip off interest in Las Vegas Raiders

Athlon Sports' Michael Gallagher relayed a social media sleuth who figured out Shedeur's potential desire to be drafted by the Las Vegas Raiders.

"X user @WalikWillis pointed out on Monday that Shedeur tweeted 'Thank you GOD' after every Raiders loss this season," Gallagher prefaced before saying, "And though some made the case he’s simply praising God because it’s Sunday, other users were quick to point out he only posts the same message on days the Raiders lose or the day after and never when they win."

Knowing that Shedeur will just come out and say it all when it comes to his NFL future, and lack of a future in Boulder, it's fair to think the "Grown QB" is openly plotting a Raiders move.

With Tom Brady now a minority owner in Las Vegas, Shedeur to the Raiders feels like a near certainty come April.
