Shedeur Sanders has been a curious study this year. After being projected as one of the top two quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft, he fell to the fifth round, where the Cleveland Browns finally picked him with pick 144. However, as the fourth quarterback that the Browns added this offseason, Sanders has his work cut out for him.
So far, through rookie training camp, OTAs, and mandatory minicamp, he has impressed teammates, coaches, fans, and media alike. Moreover, Sanders’ recently uploaded Instagram video has also stirred his fans’ excitement.
Is Shedeur Sanders Hinting at Something in Latest Video?
Aside from Deshaun Watson, who is slated to miss the entire 2025 season with an injury, Sanders is going to be competing against the likes of Kenny Pickett, fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel, and former Super Bowl Champion Joe Flacco for the QB1 role.
Suffice it to say, the road to becoming an NFL starter will be long and arduous for the former Colorado Buffaloes superstar. But he isn’t leaving anything to chance, as he continues to put in the work at all hours of the day.
That also includes workouts at midnight, as his recent Instagram video showed. In a pitch-black setting, fans could see a car driving through. Soon, it became clear that it was the fifth-round pick who was sprinting on the road as the car followed behind.
The video was from Sanders’ hometown of Dallas, Texas, with the time reading 00:08. However, what caught everyone’s attention was the music in the background. Seemingly sung by Sanders himself, some lyrics were brazenly eyebrow-raising, especially with the situation he finds himself in.
Titled “Too Legit,” it seems to be a nod to his father, who was a popular figure in the legendary MC Hammer’s “2 Legit 2 Quit” music video. Some lyrics, though, make his feelings on the situation clear as day.

The main chorus of the song goes, “Too legit to quit, the thought of losing makes me sick… I ain’t breaking strike, I’m trying to win.” With the quarterback competition he finds himself in, it’s no wonder that Sanders is continuing to impress people on social media.
In the lead-up to Browns training camp, clips and videos of the talented quarterback have been regularly making the rounds, as he practices everything from throw motions to running drills.

Sanders will get an opportunity to prove his worth in training camp. He is also expected to feature in the Browns’ preseason games, where he can show everyone why he was viewed as the second-best quarterback of this year’s draft class by many.
The Browns will face the Carolina Panthers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Los Angeles Rams in the preseason before their regular season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 7.
