Deion Sanders reveals what would get him to coach in NFL

Deion Sanders has made clear what will get him to coach at the pro level.

The Colorado head coach joined “GMA3” on Wednesday and said the one thing that will get him to make the leap to the NFL — his family.

“The only way I would consider is to coach my sons,” Sanders said, emphasizing the plural form of “sons.”

Quarterback Shedeur Sanders is likely to be one of the first few picks in this year’s draft, though it’s unclear where safety Shilo Sanders stands among pro teams.

This comes a little over a week after Coach Prime called out “idiots” who speculated where he would like his two sons to play in the league after rumors swirled that he was trying to influence where Shedeur gets picked in the draft.

Deion Sanders joined “GMA3” on Wednesday.

“It will be multiple IDIOTS that will say things that totally aren’t true regarding where I would like @ShedeurSanders & @ShiloSanders to play in the @nfl. If I say it I will say it directly to whom it may concern not a attention seeker. I do know @nflcommish personally! [Mic] drop,” Sanders wrote on X at the end of December. “They’ve already started the lying and positioning but they forgot I got TIME TODAY,” Sanders added.

In March, the 57-year-old Sanders said he knew where he wanted both Shedeur and eventual Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter to play in the NFL.

“I know where I want them to go,” Deion Sanders said on the “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” podcast. “So, it’s certain cities that ain’t going to happen. It’s going to be an Eli (Manning).”

Sanders, on “GMA3,” added that he does love being Colorado’s coach and likes what they’ve achieved as a program.

“I love Colorado. Now, I love my Buffaloes. I love everything that we’re building,” he added. “I love everything that we’re doing and I love Boulder, Colorado. I do.”

This echoes what he said in November after there was speculation he could replace Mike McCarthy as coach in Dallas.

“I’m happy where I am, man,” Sanders told reporters then.

The Buffaloes finished 9-4 overall in the first year in the Big 12, a five-win turnaround from Sanders’ first year at the helm of Colorado.
