Ex-Browns Player Calls for Deion Sanders as New Head Coach

UPDATE: Former Cleveland Browns player Leigh Bodden has just announced his bold vision for the franchise, suggesting that the team should appoint Deion Sanders as head coach. His comments come ahead of Shedeur Sanders‘ highly anticipated first start against the Las Vegas Raiders this weekend.

Bodden believes it’s the “perfect time” for the Browns to move on from current head coach Kevin Stefanski. He emphasized the potential impact of having the father-son duo of Deion and Shedeur together in Cleveland, claiming they could mirror the success of the legendary Tom Brady and Bill Belichick partnership.

In a conversation with reporters, Bodden expressed admiration for what Coach Prime has achieved at the college level. He stated, “He would attract all kinds of talented players and coaches to Cleveland.” This comes as the Browns aim to revitalize their struggling 2025 season.

Shedeur is set to make his starting debut after quarterback Dillon Gabriel was sidelined due to injury. Bodden criticized Stefanski for not giving Shedeur first-team reps earlier in the week, underscoring the need for a coaching change to better utilize the team’s talent.

Despite challenges faced by Deion’s current team, the Colorado Buffaloes, who sit at 3-7, Bodden remains optimistic. He believes that with the right leadership, the Browns could soon be celebrating a Lombardi Trophy by the shores of Lake Erie.

Bodden concluded with a passionate commitment to assist in transforming the Browns into a championship contender, stating, “Let’s see it in the pros.” The urgency for change is palpable as Cleveland fans await the start of a new era this weekend.

Stay tuned for further updates as Shedeur’s debut unfolds and the Browns contemplate their coaching future.
