DaBaby Ditches Panthers for Shedeur Sanders' Browns in Surprise NFL Fandom Shift
9 Aug
Summary
- DaBaby, a die-hard Panthers fan, switches to supporting Shedeur Sanders' Browns
- Sanders impresses in NFL debut, throwing for 138 yards and 2 TDs
- DaBaby says he'll root for Sanders "every time he touches the field"
In a surprising turn of events, popular rapper DaBaby has decided to temporarily abandon his loyalty to the Carolina Panthers in favor of supporting rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders and the Cleveland Browns. Despite being a die-hard Panthers fan, DaBaby made it clear that he will be rooting for Sanders "every time he touches the field."
This shift in fandom comes after Sanders' impressive NFL debut last week, where the 23-year-old former Colorado Buffaloes star finished 14 for 23, throwing for 138 yards and two touchdowns with a passer rating of 106.8. While the Browns were facing mostly Panthers backups in a vanilla defensive scheme, Browns fans are already envisioning Sanders as their future QB1.
After the game, Sanders showed a bit of humility, apologizing to his father, Deion Sanders, for not fully delivering on the job. However, DaBaby was quick to disagree, praising the young quarterback's performance. The 33-year-old "Rockstar" hitmaker had a simple message for any haters criticizing his split allegiances: "Shut the f**k up."
It remains to be seen how the crowded Browns quarterback room will play out, but for now, DaBaby has made it clear that Shedeur Sanders has his full support.
