In late August 2024, Shilo Sanders was waived by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, marking an end to his stint with the team.
Since then, he has shifted his focus from professional football to creating social media content.
Shilo, a safety who went undrafted this year after playing at South Carolina, Jackson State, and Colorado, is the older brother of Shedeur Sanders, the backup quarterback for the Cleveland Browns.
Both brothers have been coached by their father, Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, during their collegiate careers.
Ahead of the Week 6 AFC North matchup between the Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers, Shilo caught attention by impersonating his younger brother Shedeur.
Wearing a No.
12 Browns jersey, Shilo posted a video on his YouTube channel showing himself walking into the Steelers' home stadium while mimicking Shedeur's signature "watch flex" pose.
When asked if Shedeur would play in the game, Shilo humorously responded with his brother's viral mime routine, entertaining fans and viewers alike.
Shedeur Sanders currently serves as the backup quarterback behind Dillon Gabriel, who took over starting duties after Joe Flacco was traded to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Gabriel has started two games and appeared in four this season, accumulating 430 passing yards and three touchdowns.
Despite Shedeur's backup status, his presence remains notable as the Browns have struggled recently, suffering their third consecutive loss with a 23-9 defeat to the Steelers in the latest game.
Shilo's transition from football to social media content creation highlights a new chapter in his career following his release from the Buccaneers.
Meanwhile, Shedeur continues to develop his role within the Browns' quarterback lineup.
The Sanders family remains prominent in football circles, with their father Deion Sanders' legacy influencing both brothers' careers.
Fans and analysts continue to watch Shedeur's progress closely, especially as the Browns seek to improve their performance this season.
