You come for the king, you best not miss. Now conceded, Shedeur Sanders hasn’t quite earned king status yet. But a verbal attack on him, especially one misguided towards his attitude, is essentially an attack on doting father Deion Sanders. Who very much has earned that moniker of king. Prime’s shares an intrinsic bond with all his children that runs far deeper than mere blood and DNA. So when Shedeur was subjected to a rather scathing character assassination veiled behind anonymity, you know Deion had to dig for the perpetrator. Turns out he did, and he let them know just what’s up.
In the aftermath of the Combine down in Indy, revered NFL Insider Josina Anderson relayed what an unnamed QBs coach said to her about their interaction with Shedeur Sanders. It was alleged, by this coach, that Shedeur came across as “brash” and “arogant” during their team interview. This report caught on and spread all the way across CFB discourse. Both traditional and new media spoke about it at length. Naturally, Shedeur- and by extension his father/coach Deion Sanders- were scrutinized. However, certain factions stood ten toes down. Yes, Shedeur can be as extravagant and indulge in as much pageantry as his father. But at no juncture of his young career has he come across as arrogant or egotistical. People that gave him the benefit of the doubt can pat themselves on the back now.
Deion Sanders guested on “The Skip Bayless Show” where the namesake host confronted him about the incident. Deion stated he indeed found the QB coach who spoke to Anderson. This led to a revelation that, quite honestly, is just as resounding as the initial report itself. Skip Bayless asked whether that Josina Anderson report “angered [Shedeur’s] father” Skip being the veteran he is knew exactly how to frame the question. Probing Deion about how the father felt, not the coach who’s developed Shedeur’s character on-field over the years. Deion Sanders said “It didn’t anger me. But you know me, i’m gonna get to the bottom of it. So I called that team, because I tracked it down. I called the head coach and we had a candid conversation” Prime proceeded to reveal the contents of said conversation.
I am disappointed to hear that a quarterbacks coach from a team drafting in the top 7 referred to Shedeur Sanders as coming off “brash” and “arrogant” in his team interview and making his assessment known to a number of people, per source. I’m purposely not naming the team, as… pic.twitter.com/OjCTciEZIa
