Shedeur Sanders is confident he can be a franchise-changing QB in the NFL

Although many people are torn on Shedeur Sanders, he is confident he will be a star quarterback in the NFL.

Sanders has plenty of confidence that he won't just be a star but will be a franchise-changing QB.

At the NFL combine on Feb. 28, Sanders said,

"We went from Jackson State to Colorado and changed two programs back to back, so you don't think I can come to an NFL franchise and change a program again?" Sanders said, via NFL.com. "It's history. We done it again. It's always going to repeat itself."

Sanders did help turn around Jackson State and Colorado to turn them into contenders. But, that was at the college level and many scouts and fans don't think he will be able to do it in the NFL.

The 2025 NFL draft is set for April 24-26 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
