Three out of four suspects have been arrested after Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders’ Ohio home was burglarized late last year.
On Wednesday, Jan. 7, the Medina County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that three individuals had been arrested and were in custody after being caught entering Sanders’ property on Nov. 16, 2025 at approximately 6:46 p.m. local time, according to a media release posted by ESPN reporter Daniel Oyefusi.
Surveillance cameras in the NFL star’s residence “were able to capture video footage of the suspects as they entered and exited different portions of the home,” the release stated.
The suspects “were wearing masks and gloves” at the time, before they were “seen exiting the residence at approximately 6:58 p.m. with various property belonging to Mr. Sanders,” the post added.
Police said that “it is estimated that approximately $200,000 in property was stolen,” per the release.
The sheriff’s office said it had “completed its investigation into the crime” and had “successfully identified the three suspects that burglarized Mr. Sanders residence along with positively identifying the driver of the vehicle involved.”
“The fourth suspect is at large with an active warrant for his arrest,” the release stated.
The burglary at Sanders’ Granger Township home occurred while the athlete was making his NFL debut against the Baltimore Ravens, PEOPLE previously reported. He came on at the start of the second half after Dillon Gabriel sustained a concussion.
As previously reported by PEOPLE, thieves entered Sanders’ residence through an unlocked door and allegedly stole $200,000 in items in 12 minutes’ time, according to Medina County Sheriff’s Office deputies.

Days after the burglary, Sanders spoke to the media regarding how he’d been dealing with the incident.
“I know this is a trending topic that my house got broken into, but I’m in a mental space now to where it’s not too much that can faze me, honestly, that’s going on,” the 23-year-old said on Nov. 19. “By the way, none of my jewelry got took. So now it’s just caught slippin’. It happens.”
He added at the time that “mentally, emotionally,” he was in a “great place overall.”
“In life, there’s always going to be adversity,” the athlete said. “Things aren’t always going to go as planned. I would say I’m prepared for everything.”
The Medina County Sheriff’s Office didn’t immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE for additional information.
