Deion Sanders remains upbeat despite his son’s unexpected experience during the NFL draft, sharing with TMZ Sports that his faith remains steadfast even after Shedeur was selected in the fifth round.
Encountering reporters at LAX, the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes and football Hall of Famer expressed optimism regarding Shedeur’s new chapter with the Cleveland Browns at pick number 144. In a moment filled with discussions about the draft’s unfolding, he focused on the theme of faith and resilience.
Sanders maintained a positive outlook, proclaiming, “You know how good God is,” when prompted about the outcome.
Despite Shedeur’s notable talent, the young quarterback slipped out of the first 32 picks and the following rounds. While anxiously waiting for his name to be called, he was also the target of a prank phone call during Day 2 of the draft.
This prank, revealed to be executed by the son of Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, has led to conversations about forgiveness within the Sanders family. When asked whether there would be a chance for reconciliation, Sanders simply stated, “God is so good, man.”
While it’s uncertain if the two-time Super Bowl champion will fully forgive the young prankster, Jax has characterized his actions as a “tremendous mistake” and has since reached out to Shedeur to express his regret.
With the draft behind him, Shedeur is expected to turn his focus toward the upcoming rookie minicamp, set to commence in a few weeks.
