2025 NFL Draft: “Somebody bout to get beat up”

Shedeur Sanders’ NFL dreams were delayed on Day 2 of the 2025 Draft, when no NFL team took the plunge. Thanks to a cruel prank, the whole ordeal of his name not being taken off the board got uglier.

A possible round 1 pick throughout the 2024 college football season, the Colorado quarterback watched as the Titans took Cam Ward first overall, while the Browns and Giants passed him up, with the New York Giants trading up to grab Ole Miss rookie Jaxson Dart instead.

As Sanders’ night dragged on without hearing his name, some Ole Miss pranksters poured salt into the wound. They allegedly prank-called Shedeur during his live stream, pretending to be Mickey Loomis, the Saints’ GM.

“Good, I’ve been waiting on you,” Sanders said, only to hear, “[You’ll] have to wait a little longer.”

Fans immediately came to Shedeur’s defense, trolling the pranksters online.

“Somebody bout to get beat up,” one fan warned.

“The saints could literally sue these dudes for false impersonation,” said another.

“This kid just ruined his life over this prank call,” one more said.

One X user tweeted, “I hope they both get beat up, but no serious injuries.”

“The internet definitely gonna find them 😂😂😂,” wrote one more.

Another commented, “Huge losers. People play with karma way too much. It always comes right back around.”

Sanders slipped into Day 3, behind Tyler Shough, Jalen Milroe, and Dillon Gabriel. The reality among NFL fans is that Deion Sanders’ son may enter the league as a backup.

Prasen is an NFL/College Sports analyst at Sportskeeda. A B.Tech/Civil Engineering graduate, he has two years of experience writing content.

For Prasen, providing historical angles relevant to the story is important, as it can give the reader useful information and help them relate it to the present. He thinks this keeps the content unique rather than just a bland reporting of facts. Prasen believes in fact-checking and researching relevant information as per the headline and context. He hates clickbait or misleading the reader.

A fan of the Colorado Buffaloes since Deion Sanders took over as coach, Prasen expects Coach Prime to make the Buffs a national championship contender. Nick Saban is his favorite all-time coach, while Baker Mayfield and Caitlin Clark are his favorite players. Prasen considers Vince Young coming up clutch for the Texas Longhorns in the dying seconds of the 2017 national championship game against the USC Trojans as the most iconic moment of all time.

Per Prasen, College Sports is competitive and garners attention but it is just the beginning, where a student-athlete can show their skills and potential to make it to the big leagues. When he is not researching and writing, Prasen’s hobbies include pursuing higher studies and playing sports.
