REVEALED: THREE NFL TEAMS SHEDEUR SANDERS MET WITH ON FRIDAY AHEAD OF NFL DRAFT

Outgoing University of Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders has met with three prospective teams which could select him in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft.

Sanders is in Texas this week for the East-West Shrine Bowl - a college football equivalent of an All-Star game where players get another shot of proving themselves in front of the eyes of pro scouts.

But Sanders will not be participating. Instead, he's down in the Lone Star State to meet with a number of teams who are interested in picking him.

According to ESPN, Sanders has already met with the teams that hold the top three picks in the draft: the Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, and New York Giants.

All three teams have potential needs at quarterback that could be filled.

The Titans are helmed by Will Levis, who has not exactly lived up to expectations since he took over from Ryan Tannehill last season. Earlier this season, he was benched for Mason Rudolph.

Speaking to ESPN, Titans head coach Brian Callahan said of Sanders, 'He's really poised and had a mature way about him. You can tell he's been in the spotlight and knows how to handle it.'

The Browns just re-structured the deal of quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was injured for a majority of the season. Jameis Winston took over for him, but it's possible that the team returns to Watson next year.

As for the Giants, they cut their opening day starter, Daniel Jones, and are looking in an entirely new direction at quarterback.

Sanders is considered to be one of the top quarterback prospects in this year's draft - competing with University of Miami (FL) signal caller Cam Ward.

Some of Sanders' Colorado teammates are also at the Shrine Bowl - including his younger brother, safety Shilo Sanders, as well as receivers Will Sheppard, LaJohntay Wester, Jimmy Horn Jr., and cornerback Cam'Ron Silmon-Craig.

Last season, Sanders finished with the fourth-most passing yards and the second-most passing touchdowns of any quarterback in college football. 

He came eighth in voting for the Heisman Trophy, which was won by his teammate and fellow top draft choice Travis Hunter.
