Shedeur Sanders: Scared To Play In Cold Weather?
Caleb Williams is a big reason why Shedeur Sanders didn’t want to declare for the 2024 NFL Draft. He doesn’t want to be second to anybody. However, looking ahead to the 2025 NFL Draft, father Deion had some very interesting comments.
Coach Prime had the following to say on the SiriusXM Mad Dog Radio with Chris Russo:
“Let me tell you something that I have a problem with,” Deion told Russo. “And this kid can flat out play, I think he’s the best one on the board this year for sure. A kid that’s coming from California for the last couple years, right? And went to Oklahoma. That’s not terribly cold. Chicago’s cold, man. You gotta think about that kind of stuff when you’re taking a young man. Like see, when you take a guy from Ohio State and you bring him to Chicago, OK, I could understand that. But from California to Chicago? Not only that, they added what? One or two more games in the NFL. Seventeen games. Come on, man. You gotta factor in that stuff. That stuff matters.
“Like, I don’t want my kid [Shedeur] going nowhere cold next year. He grew up in Texas. He played in Jackson, played in Colorado. Season’s over before it gets cold in Colorado. I’m just thinking way ahead. I don’t want that for him.”
Will Deion really put his foot down and refuse to have Shedeur drafted by a team that plays in cold weather? Based on these comments, I don’t think you can rule it out. Crazier things have happened.
