As he waits for the call -- and not a prank call, as he received on Friday -- there are some in the public who are shocked. Among them appears to be Kansas City Chiefs superstar QB Patrick Mahomes, who tweeted one word on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday night:

Sanders, who was ranked as the No. 23 overall prospect and No. 2 quarterback available on 2025 B/R NFL Draft Big Board, had been discussed in some early mock drafts as a potential top-three pick and a competitor with Ward as the top quarterback in the draft.

Patrick Mahomes is apparently surprised that Deion Sanders' son, Shedeur Sanders, has not been selected in the 2025 NFL draft. On April 25, Mahomes took to X to share one word — "crazy" — without any context.
