Although Shedeur Sanders missed out on more than $40 million in salary from his fall in the 2025 NFL Draft last week, he apparently made up some of that by becoming the only draft pick to sell his own gear.
It is not known how much was made, but all three items — a short and a long sleeve T-shirt and a hoodie -- that were on his "2Legendary" site were marked "sold out" as of Wednesday morning.
Fanatics confirmed to cllct Wednesday that Sanders now has the No. 1 selling jersey among all 2025 draft picks across the company's network of sites, including the NFL Shop and the Cleveland Browns' official shop.
There are nine options to buy items representing the 144th pick by the Browns. That's more offerings than any other pick except the No. 1 overall selection, Tennessee quarterback Cam Ward (10).
For Sanders, Fanatics is offering a white and a white alternate jersey, plus a brown jersey in youth, women's and men's sizes. There are also brown and white T-shirt jerseys in both men's and women's sizes.

Travis Hunter, Sanders' Colorado teammate and the two-way star who was drafted second overall by Jacksonville, has seven jersey options.
With some believing NFL teams colluded to not draft Sanders, there's a groundswell on social media from some fans to buy from his site instead of his official NFL jersey.
Sanders has not yet declared his number, but it's of course expected to be No. 2 — the number he wore at Colorado and the college number worn by his Hall of Fame father, Deion, at Florida State.
That's not exactly a positive number for quarterbacks drafted by the Browns, considering it was worn by both Tim Couch and Johnny Manziel.
