Colorado Buffaloes football head coach Deion Sanders shot down any discussions that he has any plans to coach in the NFL. Last offseason, Sanders reportedly talked to Cowboys owner Jerry Jones about coaching the team<\/a> before Dallas promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to head coach.<\/a><\/p>\n

A year later, his tone has changed.<\/p>\n

“Not whatsoever,” Sanders said on ESPN’s First Take<\/a>. “What transpired with my son last year? Ain’t no way in the world.”<\/p>\n

Sanders was referring to his youngest son, Shedeur Sanders, now a quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. Shedeur fell to the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft<\/a> after playing for his father at both Colorado and Jackson State. Shilo Sanders, who also played for his father at Colorado, went undrafted<\/a> and was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the NFL preseason<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shedeur was the second quarterback the Browns selected in 2025 and started the regular season behind former Browns quarterback Joe Flacco and fellow rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After Flacco was traded to the Bengals and Gabriel went down in Week 12 with a concussion<\/a>, Shedeur finished the rest of the season as the starter<\/a>. Shedeur finished his rookie season with a 3-4 record as the starter and threw for 1,400 yards, 7 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Sanders was also selected to the Pro Bowl as a replacement<\/a>, becoming the first Browns QB to make the Pro Bowl since Derek Anderson in 2008.<\/p>\n

Next season, Shedeur is expected to compete for the starting job with Gabriel and Deshaun Watson <\/a>under new Browns head coach Todd Monken<\/a>, who reportedly expressed interest in drafting him out of Colorado<\/a> when he was the offensive coordinator of the Ravens.<\/p>\n

Deion Sanders also struggled in his first year at Colorado without his son at quarterback. The Buffaloes were 3-9 and played Kaidon Salter, Ryan Staub and Julian Lewis<\/a> at quarterback last season.<\/p>\n

Lewis is expected to come into next year as the starting quarterback. He finished the year with 589 yards, 4 touchdowns and no interceptions before he redshirted. Sanders is now 16-21 since taking over as the Colorado head coach in 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Colorado Buffaloes football head coach Deion Sanders shot down any discussions that he has any plans to coach…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":458416,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[4851,49,48,1724,5731,29436,7236,529,80828,7581,1752,25358,37105,1757,187657,78636,514,78637,1729,55060,82,1733],"class_list":["post-458415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-bengals","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-cleveland-browns","tag-colorado","tag-colorado-buffaloes-football","tag-dallas","tag-deion-sanders","tag-derek-anderson","tag-deshaun-watson","tag-dillon-gabriel","tag-head-coach","tag-jackson-state","tag-joe-flacco","tag-julian-lewis","tag-kaidon-salter","tag-nfl","tag-ryan-staub","tag-shedeur-sanders","tag-shilo-sanders","tag-sports","tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=458415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458415\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/458416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=458415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=458415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=458415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
