Deion Sanders Calls Out False Reports Surrounding Shedeur Sanders' Future

The Colorado Buffaloes had a standout season in Deion Sanders' second year as head coach, with much of the success stemming from the roster and culture he has built—especially with his son, quarterback Shedeur Sanders, at the helm. 

Yet, Shedeur is expected to enter the 2025 NFL Draft after Colorado’s bowl game later this month, and with draft talk intensifying, many are speculating about where he will land.

However, some of the speculation took a turn on Saturday when a media platform called "NFL Rookie Watch" reported that Shedeur Sanders is "prepared" to be drafted by either the Las Vegas Raiders or the Dallas Cowboys. 

The platform also suggested that there is a "high likelihood" Sanders would refuse to play for the New York Giants or the Cleveland Browns if either team were to select him, drawing a parallel to Eli Manning’s infamous refusal to play for the San Diego Chargers after being selected in 2004.

Deion Sanders quickly responded to the rumors, calling out the page for spreading false information. He made it clear that the reports were not true, defending his son and setting the record straight.

"A Lie don’t care who tells it. Please stop trying to become relevant by misrepresenting my son. God bless you." Deion said.
