That boy Shedeur is special! The Colorado Buffaloes’ quarterback is enjoying the rest of his college days as the NFL Draft is fast approaching. Shedeur Sanders was selected to be a part of the East West Shrine Bowl, the college equivalent of the Pro Bowl.
The quarterback has quickly turned heads and left a positive impression on those who have come in contact with him. As per Turron Davenport, he has conducted himself as a true professional and Shedeur Sanders‘ is leaving the scouts and staff impressed.
This should not be surprising to hear. Deion Sanders has inculcated a sense of work ethic and professionalism in all of his athletes at Colorado and his son is bound to follow on the footsteps of his father.
Shedeur Sanders has made quite an impression on the East-West Shrine Staff. I’ve talked to 4 people on staff, they all say he’s been pleasant to work with and willing to do whatever they ask of him. Sanders will attend the remaining practices but isn’t participating.

The top teams in the 2025 NFL Draft asked Shedeur Sanders to refrain from practicing
This decision is influenced by the requests made by the Tenneessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, and the New York Giants; teams with the top three picks in the draft. They reached out to the quarterback and asked him to not practice. Sanders met with all three teams on Friday before practice commenced on Saturday for prospects.
All three teams are open to the idea of taking him with their picks. It is interesting to see the Cleveland Browns in the mix for selecting a new quarterback considering they have Deshaun Watson who still has two years left on his deal. With respect to the meetings, Davenport reported that the quarterback’s meeting with the Titans went well. The tides are turning in Sanders’ favor and his odds of going number 1 overall continue to increase.
Very positive one. They left the meeting impressed with his maturity, relaxed nature. "He just seems to get it." Also mentioned how his toughness (see the Nebraska game) stood out to them.

Apart from Tennessee, the Giants are hopeful of selecting Sanders. The team’s HC Brian Daboll was seen shaking hands with the quarterback. Fans were optimistic of the franchise making a good call and bringing him into The Big Apple.
