Shedeur Sanders bought a Rolls-Royce days after signing his rookie contract with the Cleveland Browns. The 23-year-old quarterback shared a video of the delivery company dropping off the newly minted car in front of the Browns' facility on his older brother's YouTube channel, Well of Media.

Sanders could have earned millions through his first contract, similar to Cam Ward in Tennessee. The unprecedented draft day slide cost Sanders a lot of money.

As he was picked in the fifth round, Sanders signed a four-year, $4.6 million contract with the Cleveland Browns. He will earn a few more pennies than a million each year. It didn't stop him from buying a new Rolls-Royce worth $500k.

Shedeur Sanders failed to impress social media with his Rolls-Royce

The new paint on Shedeur's new car sparkled under the sunlight. The olive-green hue made it stand out even more among all the other cars in the parking lot in front of the Browns' facility.

However, the color drew mixed reactions from fans on the internet. Most thought it looked bland on a car like a Rolls-Royce.

Regardless of how anyone feels, Sanders deserved a new ride after what he went through during the draft. But how did a fifth-round rookie who only recently signed a contract afford to buy a Rolls-Royce?

The answer lies in his college life. Sanders signed NIL contracts with several big-name brands while starring for Jackson State and Colorado in college. As per On3.com, he earned around $6.5 million from the deal.

Former NFL quarterback Cam Newton recently explained that Sanders has the potential to earn big if he sticks around long enough.

There's no fifth-year option [in Shedeur's contract]. Now, if you do what you're supposed to do, Shedeur — everything you're capable of — you can get to that bag… We just saw somebody make $265 million!

The 'someone' Newton mentioned is Brock Purdy, who signed a five-year, $265 million contract with the San Francisco 49ers. Purdy was the last pick in the 2022 NFL draft. When his chance arrived, the 25-year-old grabbed it with both hands. He led the Niners to a Super Bowl appearance and won an NFL title.

Hi!!! I am Ishan Misra… I have covered the NFL & College Football for FirstSportz since 2023 (crossed 3000 articles). My first introduction to football was through Tom Brady's seventh Super Bowl triumph as the Buccaneers QB… whitewashing the Chiefs. The noise, confetti, passion, and sportsmanship of the players got me hooked, like a bee to a flower. When I am not fidgeting with my laptop keyboard and scrolling through Twitter for juicy gossip, I fondly spend my time reading Autobiographies of athletes… I am also a massive pop culture nut & enjoy listening to rock and old-school rap songs.
