Browns QB Shedeur Sanders 'surprised' by Pro Bowl nod, says new coach Todd Monken has 'great vibe'

SAN FRANCISCO — In a typical year, Shedeur Sanders' seven starts and resulting production wouldn't have landed him in the Pro Bowl.

2025 wasn't a typical year, though, and when Sanders was in an airport while traveling to see his brother, Shiloh, in January, he received the most unexpected phone call of his rookie season.

The message was short, sweet and celebratory: He was headed to San Francisco with a new honor on his resumé.

"Yes, I was surprised," Sanders said with a smile before Monday's practice ahead of the Pro Bowl Games. "It wasn't like I was just sitting there expecting it. … I just didn't have too much thought in it.

The guy gets picked to be on a fake team, one that’s even less important than the Cleveland Browns, and all of a sudden, he becomes the symbol for the death of an All-Star game that was already on life support.

Sanders, who earned media firebrand status because of his name and his dramatic fall in last year’s NFL Draft, was a Rorschach test of a quarterback in his rookie season. Some saw a potential star held back by his coach and teammates. Others saw a rookie who was more flash than substance and wasn’t destined to be a real starting QB in the NFL.
