Why Shedeur Sanders passed on an NFL agent, according to Deion

Deion Sanders says he and Shedeur chose not to hire an agent during the 2025 NFL draft because Shedeur was projected as a top pick and an agent’s commission wouldn’t have been worth it. He argues that going agent-free may have left Shedeur more exposed to misinformation and pre-draft criticism, while Shilo Sanders later hired an agent after going undrafted and earned a 53-man roster spot. Shedeur did start seven games last season and will now compete with Deshaun Watson for the Browns’ QB1; ultimately, his NFL fate will hinge on his talent and performance, not the agent.

Lynn, who has made a name for herself in a male-dominated industry, is changing what we think of when we think of a sports agent and inspiring more women to step into spaces with antiquated thinking.
