Shilo Sanders dashes NFL owners’ hopes by clarifying Coach Prime’s future

Rumors connecting Deion Sanders to an NFL coaching job seem to surface every time a major team fires its head coach, but one of the most talked-about scenarios involving Deion leading the Dallas Cowboys appears to be off the table.

Before Brian Schottenheimer‘s promotion from offensive coordinator to head coach, reports suggested that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had set his sights on Sanders as a potential replacement for Mike McCarthy.

Deion Sanders goes off on Julian ‘Juju’ Lewis during Colorado practice

The move would have been a full-circle story for Jones and Sanders, who teamed up to bring a Super Bowl title to Dallas in the mid-1990s.

Sanders played for the Cowboys from 1995 to 1999, earning four All-Pro and four Pro Bowl selections while helping secure the franchise’s fifth championship. His bond with Jones has remained strong over the years, which fueled speculation that “Coach Prime” could return to Dallas – this time with a headset instead of a helmet.

But that idea quickly faded after Sanders signed a five-year, $54 million contract extension with the University of Colorado, solidifying his future in college football and making him one of the sport’s highest-paid coaches.

Shilo Sanders ends the speculation

If there was any lingering hope that Deion might one day make the jump to the NFL, his son Shilo recently shut it down. During a Twitch livestream, a fan commented, “Hope your dad coaches in the NFL.” Shilo didn’t hesitate to respond.

“That’s probably not going to happen,” he said, effectively ending the conversation before it began.

The comment aligns with what Deion himself has expressed several times in recent interviews. While some fans and analysts continue to dream of seeing him on an NFL sideline, Sanders has made it clear that his heart lies in mentoring college players rather than managing professionals.

“The only way I would consider is to coach my sons – not son, sons,” Deion said earlier this year on Good Morning America. “[The door isn’t closed but] I love Colorado. I love my Buffaloes, I love everything that we’re building.”

Look out, officials of the NBA. Chicago Bulls wing Kevin Hurter might half-heartedly bat the ball at you.The Bulls' 143-107 loss to the Miami Heat in NBA Cup play on Friday saw one of the most bizarre ejections of the young NBA season. In the third quarter, Huerter was called for a blocking foul after making too much contact with Miami's Pelle Larson.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIn frustration, Huerter smacked the ball in the air in the direction of Che Flores the official who called the foul. The ball bounced into Flores' right leg, lightly enough that the ref didn't immediately react to the impact. However, he did turn around when veteran official (and potential mayoral candidate) Tony Brothers hit Huerter with a technical foul and instant ejection.The decision was upheld upon review.In case you were curious, here's what Rule 12, Section V of […]

The Josh Allen stat that makes clear the Bills QB is at fault for poor performances

For the past few years, each offseason was filled with tremendous hope for Buffalo Bills fans. They had a franchise quarterback in Josh Allen, and the AFC was somewhat open despite the Kansas City Chiefs frequently beating them in the playoffs. Ahead of the 2025 season, it felt like this was the year for the Bills to really make their move.Instead, the Bills have been frustratingly inconsistent this season. A tough loss to the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football brought the Bills' record to 7-4, which is still good for an AFC Wild Card spot currently, but several other teams are only one or two games behind them. The loss to the Texans exposed the Bills offense in a concerning way, though.Josh Allen's latest move lets us anticipate changes in the Buffalo Bills to secure a playoff spotAllen took […]

On fourth-and-17, N.C. State punter Caden Noonkester delivered a punt short enough that it was well out of reach of the return man.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe punt instead landed on the helmet of a member of return team member K.J.
