- Did Shedeur Sanders purchase custom Rolls-Royce? Deion Sanders dispels rumors
Shedeur Sanders drove a custom, black and gold Rolls-Royce during his time at Colorado. Many believed he had added another custom luxury car to his collection after being drafted by the Cleveland Browns .
Deion Sanders Jr. was seen in a YouTube video showing a custom, dark green Rolls-Royce being delivered to the Sanders family estate in Canton, Texas. Many originally assumed the car — rumored to be worth at least $500,000 — belonged to the Browns quarterback, as he could be heard discussing the vehicle with his half-brother in the video.

However, Colorado coach Deion Sanders dispelled the notion in a post to his X profile Monday .
"LIES!" read the reply to a post that claimed Shedeur Sanders had purchased a Rolls-Royce.
The elder Sanders did not offer any additional information for — or by — whom the car was purchased.
Either way, the rumored purchase shined a light on Sanders' signing bonus, which he admitted "wasn't that high" when asked whether he would try to buy the No. 2 jersey off DeAndre Carter shortly after being drafted.
"I'm not trying to buy anything," Sanders told reporters at a media availability in early May. "My signing bonus ain't that high right now."

SHEDEUR SANDERS: Why did QB slide in draft? NFL team execs give blunt views
Sanders got a $446,553 signing bonus as part of the four-year, $4.6 million rookie deal he signed with the Browns after being chosen in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft . His rookie deal is worth less than the $6.5 million NIL valuation he had by the end of his time at Colorado, according to On3 , though he will almost certainly be able to bridge that gap with sponsorship deals.
