Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders, the son of NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, was not selected in the first round of the NFL draft. Instead, he was expected to go to the Pittsburgh Steelers but was ultimately passed over for Oregon defensive tackle Derrick Harmon. Despite being a polarizing prospect, Sanders was the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year in his senior season with Colorado, where he improved the team’s record significantly.
Sanders began his collegiate career at Jackson State before transferring to Colorado to play under his father’s coaching. However, scouts and coaches have raised questions about his attitude both on and off the field, calling him “brash” and “entitled.” Despite criticism for his lack of arm strength and decision-making, Sanders has been praised for his accuracy, completing over 70% of his passes.
Sanders remains unfazed by the criticism, stating that he doesn’t have space for negativity in his life and that chaos only adds to his story. Despite not being selected in the first round, he remains optimistic about his future in the NFL.
