Shedeur Sanders Reacts To Prank Call From Pretend NFL Team During Draft Fall: 'Why Get Mad?'

The prank call is beyond rude.

Shedeur talked about the call, on the live stream.

“Nobody got that number but coaches, strictly for that reason," Sheduer said. “Why get mad? They want you to have a certain type of reaction to it”

Shedeur was highly-regarded as a first round draft pick through the pre-draft process. His fall surprised many as five quarterbacks have been picked before the former Colorado star. On day two of the draft on Friday, Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough was the third quarterback drafted. The New Orleans Saints drafted Shough with the No. 40 pick with their uncertainty with Derek Carr, instead of Sanders.

In the third round, the Seattle Seahawks selected former Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe and the Cleveland Browns picked former Oregon Ducks quarterback Dillon Gabriel.

In the first round, Miami Dolphins Cam Ward (Tennessee Titans) and Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart (New York Giants) were both drafted.

Many people have spoke out about Shedeur's draft fall including President Donald Trump and Dallaso Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.

"Like you said it's a machine," Prescott said to media in a video posted by DLLS Cowboys on X. "I don't think it's fair. I don't think it's fair in the sense of, how much people are looking for and towards him being drafted. Because as I stated, it doesn't matter when you get in. I know he expected himself to go No. 1 overall and he would be wrong if he didn't expect himself to be there. So every pick after that has hurt, but every pick after that I know is fuel to the fire."

"(I heard a) little bit of that note from Shedeur, (after) talking to him. This is only gonna make him better, this is only gonna push him. It's all about when you get into this business and when you get in,
if you can handle it. I know Shedeur can handle it. He's been through a lot. He's had pressure his whole life, so this will be no different."

On Thursday night after Sanders did not get drafted in the first round, he posted a video from his NFL Draft party at his family's home in Texas. Shedeur opted to not attend the draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

"We all didn't expect this, of course, but I feel like with God, anything is possible," Shedeur said. "I feel like this didn't happen for no reason. All this is, of course, is fuel to the fire. Under no circumstance, we all know this shouldn't have happened, but we understand we're on to bigger and better things. Tomorrow's the day, and we're going to be happy regardless. Legendary."
