Shedeur Sanders made a bold statement during the 2025 NFL Draft night — and not just with his words or actions, but with a massive, diamond-studded chain that turned heads across the country. Staying true to his flashy personality both on and off the field, Sanders showcased his growing brand and unshakable confidence from his custom-made draft room in Texas.
Shedeur Sanders’ ‘Legendary’ Chain Steals the Spotlight
Choosing to stay at his 5,000-acre ranch home in Canton, Texas, alongside his father, Deion Sanders, and brother, Shilo Sanders, Shedeur opted for a more personal setting instead of attending the draft in Green Bay, Wis. However, his presence was anything but low-key. Sporting a sharp, all-black outfit, Sanders completed his look with a custom chain featuring the word “Legendary” — a nod to the personal brand he is carefully building.

The chain, reportedly worth well over $100,000, glittered brightly throughout the night. True to his larger-than-life style, Sanders left nothing to the imagination about his appearance. As described, “From sleek dĂ©cor to bold inspirational quotes on the walls, every detail screamed confidence, ambition, and a clear vision for greatness.” His custom draft room was a complete showcase of this branding, with the word “Legendary” prominently displayed across the walls and furniture.
Adding to the spectacle, Sanders had hats from all 32 NFL teams neatly arranged on a shelf and built a professional setup complete with wide-screen projectors and a live-streaming area. Hosting a Twitch broadcast alongside his brother, Shilo, he turned the draft into more than just a night — he made it an experience for his fans. Sanders even interacted with fans in real-time, answering questions, sharing his reactions to picks, and giving behind-the-scenes insights into his journey leading up to draft night.
Despite the anticipation surrounding Sanders as a potential first-round pick, the night took an unexpected turn. He was notably absent from the first-round selections, a surprising twist given his impressive college stats: 4,134 passing yards, 37 touchdowns, and just 10 interceptions at Colorado. Still, Sanders maintained his composure, stating in a post-draft interview, “We all didn’t expect this,” while expressing excitement for what lies ahead.
Throughout the evening, Sanders’ maturity and understanding of the bigger picture stood out just as much as his jewelry. The disappointment of sliding out of the first round didn’t rattle him — if anything, it sharpened his resolve. With his brand front and center, Sanders made it clear that his journey is about more than one night. It’s about building a lasting legacy, both on and off the field.
Beyond the chain and the lavish surroundings, Sanders’ ability to stay composed under pressure showed his growth and leadership. His draft night wasn’t about disappointment — it was about branding, resilience, and setting the tone for the next chapter of his career. And through it all, his diamond-studded “Legendary” chain served as the perfect symbol of his unstoppable spirit.
