Tyson, listed at 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds, is a two-time All-Big 12 selection who has compiled 1,812 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns over two seasons with the Sun Devils. He began his college career at Colorado before transferring to ASU ahead of coach Deion Sanders’ arrival.
“To whom it may concern JORDYN TYSON IS HIM! His Mentality makes him that 1,” Sanders wrote on X, a message that quickly drew attention from fans and analysts.
Speculation connected Sanders’ endorsement to the Browns, who hold the No. 6 and No. 24 picks in the first round. Fans suggested the post could foreshadow a draft move to pair Tyson with quarterback Shedeur Sanders, amid chatter about potential tampering.
Shedeur Sanders is viewed as the Browns’ probable starting quarterback next season. In seven games as a rookie, he went 3-4 with 1,400 passing yards, seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions, numbers that highlighted upside despite inconsistency.
New Browns coach Todd Monken declined to commit on the quarterback depth chart, saying the position remains “to be determined” while expressing excitement about Shedeur and the room as a whole. Monken has praised Tyson’s potential influence, and his comments touched on the broader goal of rebuilding Cleveland’s quarterback ecosystem.
Monken also spoke about Deshaun Watson’s return from injury, noting two young quarterbacks’ development will be key as the Browns look to retool the roster around a healthy Watson, who was a Pro Bowl-level passer before his injuries. The Browns are expected to explore all options to strengthen the quarterback room while evaluating young talent and veteran assets.
