Colorado head coach Deion Sanders says there’s one way he’d head to the NFL: if he could coach both of his sons, quarterback Shedeur Sanders and cornerback Shilo Sanders.
Sanders said he is “99 percent sure” that Colorado’s bowl game was his last chance to coach Shedeur and Shilo, but when asked on GMA3 If he were to ever coach in the NFL, he said the opportunity to coach his sons again would be the only way.
“You know what? The only way I would consider it is to coach my sons,” Sanders said.
Sanders then emphasized the plural of “sons” to make it clear that he meant both Shedeur and Shilo. Shedeur is seen as a potential first overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, but Shilo is not seen as a top draft prospect.
Still, Sanders emphasized that Colorado is where he wants to be.
“I love Colorado. I love everything we build, I love what we do, and I love Boulder, Colorado,” Sanders said.
And the only way he could love a coaching job more is if it gave him another chance to coach his sons.
