Before Deion Sanders became a college football coach, he spent years as an analyst with NFL Network.
During that time, he got close with Rich Eisen.
Its safe to say the two are very familiar with one another.
Eisen hoped to use their shared work experience to coax some information out of Sanders today, but the NFL Hall of Famer snuffed out his attempted extraction.
During this afternoons episode of The Rich Eisen Show , Eisen tried getting Sanders to reveal his supposed draft plan for his son, Shedeur.
Eisen was specifically angling for Sanders to admit if hed jump to the NFL to continue coaching the talented quarterback.
Sanders recognized Eisens intentions and called him on them.
Eisen laughed as Sanders walked him through all he knew.
Colorados head coach began laughing too, then said he was running comfortable in Boulder.
Its not the first time Sanders has been forced to deny interest in an NFL gig for 2025.
And until the next season starts, it likely wont be the last.
Deion Sanders says he wants Shedeur, Travis Hunter to be happy Sheduer Sanders didnt end up being a Heisman Trophy finalist this year.
However, he posted tremendous numbers while leading Colorado to a 9-3 record and won the Johnny Unitas Award.
Scouts dont consider him to have the highest ceiling among quarterbacks in this draft class but do recognize he has Pro Bowl-level upside .
That, and a perceived high floor, make him a solid candidate for the No.
1 overall pick.
To Deion Sanders who is clearly somewhat biased the choice is obvious.
He believes Shedeur will be the first player off the board come draft time.
Hes also confident Travis Hunter will go in the top five.
But no matter where they end up, hes a bit disappointed theyll be joining organizations that struggled in 2024.
Deion told Eisen he thinks whether the Las Vegas Raiders or New York Giants hold the No.
1 pick, Shedeur is getting selected at that spot.
He, and the rest of us, will find out if thats true when the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off on April 24..
