The Saints took Shedeur Sanders' comments personally

Nov 7, 2026 1:02 AM

Shedeur Sanders caused quite the stir this week when he was asked an innocuous question about what he's seen from the Saints defense and opted to not answer it.

His exact response was:

"Yeah, I've seen a lot. (Smiles) When I smile, just know that means something. I'm maturing, you know what I'm saying. I'm maturing. I could have gave that a decent answer, but now I'm just going to smile whenever it's just some questions."

It's hard to know what exactly Sanders was gwtting at. Some thing he was offended by the question insinuating he doesn't watch tape or something. Either way, however he interpreted the question, one Saints defense interpreted his answer as a shot at them.

Sanders may have unintentionally given the Saints some bulletin board material. We'll see how that plays out Sunday.
