Browns rookie QB Shedeur Sanders reportedly cited for speeding, driving more than 100 mph
Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders was pulled over on Tuesday morning for allegedly driving more than 100 miles per hour on a Cleveland-area highway.
Sanders, according to Fox 8, was pulled over on 71 North around 12:24 a.m. on Tuesday by police. He was cited for driving 101 mph, which was 41 mph over the posted speed limit.

Further specifics of the incident are not known. Sanders can simply pay a fine for the ticket should he choose not to fight it in court.
The Browns selected Sanders in the fifth round earlier this spring in what was one of the more shocking slides in recent NFL Draft memory. Sanders threw for 4,134 yards with 37 touchdowns last season at Colorado while teaming up with Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter.
Sanders, the son of Hall of Famer and Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders, is one of several quarterbacks fighting for the starting job in Cleveland this fall while Deshaun Watson remains sidelined with an Achilles injury. The Browns selected Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel in the third round of the NFL Draft earlier this spring, too, and they have Kenny Pickett and veteran Joe Flacco available, too.
If Sanders were to be the starting quarterback for the Browns, he'd be just the second quarterback selected in the fifth round or later of the draft to start in Week 1 since the league merger.

Cleveland Browns' Mason Graham, Michigan alum, booed by Ohio State fans at youth camp
Cleveland Browns' Mason Graham, Michigan alum, booed by Ohio State fans at youth camp Ohio State loyalty runs deep in the Buckeye State. So even if you were a productive player in the state of Michigan, particularly with the Wolverines, chances are, even at the pro ranks, they won't accept you. Since the Cleveland Browns traded back in the 2025 NFL draft to the No. 5 pick and selected Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham, there's been a lot of bellyaching and handwringing throughout the state of Ohio about the pick. Despite Graham being arguably the best defensive tackle each of the past two years, and single-handedly showing his might in the win over the Buckeyes this past year, he'll forever be tainted in the state due to his college ties. It became that much more apparent at a Cleveland Browns youth camp on Wednesday. Graham was present and was announced as a Michigan alum, and the young crowd of campers therefore gave him a not-so-warm welcome. He, of course, embraced it. Graham played for three years in Ann Arbor and is 3-0 against Ohio State -- even with the team that went to Columbus last year with a 7-5 record. He also won the Big Ten twice and the national championship in 2023. Of course, Graham could turn things around with a dominant showing in the NFL, much like former Ohio State linebacker Chris Spielman did during his time with the Detroit Lions. However, it's much more of an uphil battle for Graham in Cleveland, especially considering that he never lost to Ohio State in his career.
