“Don’t Like Dad”: Deion Sanders Puts Son Shedeur’s Football Future in Jeopardy as Fallout With NFL Sides Revealed

The Colorado Buffaloes, holding a 7-2 in the season and 5-1 in Big 12 play, have a solid chance to cement its spot in the playoffs. Just win your games, and you are good! If you’re a Colorado fan, you must know that our big guy, Deion Sanders, or Coach Prime, as we like to call him, stays in the limelight. But he’s not in everyone’s good books; that’s the price of being so famous and influential, and Coach Prime does not care about it. But while talking about a similar thing, his son, Shedeur Sanders, was a little nervous about how it could affect his future in the NFL.

On his 2legendary podcast, Shedeur hosted soccer legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic, where he opened up about his future goals for joining the league next year. Now, an eye-catching moment from his interview was shared by Yahoo Sports on Instagram, and it’s raising many eyebrows in the college football world. it happened when Ibrahimovic indirectly asked him about Shedeur’s favorite spots in the NFL in a discussion on next year’s Draft.

“There’s a couple of teams that don’t fit. You know the situation, everything, and you got to understand, there’s a couple teams that don’t like the personality, that don’t like, dad! And don’t like everything like that. So it is what it is,” Shedeur Sanders mentioned. For obvious reasons, the Buffs QB1 did not get into the names of the teams he was talking about. That would have created quite an uproar. But, there you have it from the horse’s mouth. Some NFL teams may not draft the No. 1 QB in his draft class because they don’t like Deion.

On his part, Ibrahimovic helped Shedeur clear his thoughts and told him to be confident in himself. Here, we have to agree with what Zlatan said because the real teams will see Shedeur’s potential rather than hold grudges against Coach Prime. Because these stints and this sport run hand in hand.

Everyone is aware of a little cold war happening between Coach Prime and CBS Sport, and they ranked Shedeur Sanders as the No. 1 quarterback in their rankings a few days ago. So that’s how things work. Because Shedeur has his own identity, he has created it apart from being the son of the most influential person in college football. However, Coach Prime is also concerned about Shedeur’s future in the NFL.

When Deion Sanders appeared on Tuesday’s (November 12) episode of “Speak” on Fox, he revealed that he had partially influenced his son’s career in the NFL. According to him, there are a few teams incapable of molding quarterbacks, and it will stunt their growth as players. After all, he wishes the best for his son. He only said that because if the wrong team picks Shedeur, he’ll need to intervene and pull an Eli Manning saga if the situation demands.

“Eli, a LaVar Ba-l, a LeBron… I’m pulling all of them. Sincerely, we’ve talked about it ostensibly. I’ve talked to multiple teams because they’re at practice every day. But I want what’s best for him, and I want him to be happy as well. You don’t really get to dictate where your son gets to go because there’s a draft process, but you know us, you know how we are. We know who ain’t trying to win in the NFL; you know who’s consistently in the basement year after year. You don’t want that situation for your kid,” Deion said.

What is this Eli Manning saga that Deion talks about? Well, the son of legendary Archie Manning was selected by the San Diego Chargers in 2004 as the No. 1 pick in the 2004 NFL Draft. However, before the event could have happened and knowing the Chargers would have the first pick, Eli had made it clear that he would not feature for San Diego. That resulted in a mind-blowing trade to the Giants for Philip Rivers. Similarly, LaVar Ba-l is known in the NBA world for making outrageous statements, and some of them were even related to the drafting situations of Lonzo Ba-l and LaMelo Ba-l.

Can we see Coach Prime doing something like that? Well, we’ll have our answer in about 6-7 months.
