Colorado’s quarterback, Shedeur Sanders, wrapped up his college football season on a bittersweet note. The Buffaloes faced a tough 36-14 loss to BYU in the Alamo Bowl, and while Shedeur had been making headlines all season for his exceptional gameplay, the question loomed: what happened in this crucial game? Could this loss impact his future?

Unfortunately, the game didn’t just end with a disappointing score; it also left Shedeur nursing a knee injury. In the closing minutes of the contest, he suffered what he described as a “bad cut” on his knee. On the latest episode of his 2Legendary podcast, he opened up about the injury and NFL draft rumors. He revealed how uncomfortable the injury has made his daily life. “I just got a bad cut on my knee. Now, my whole, I’m just to the knee right now. So I just got a bad cut on my knee and I put nothing on it and it still hurts. When I put on pants, it’s leaking. I don’t know. Bro, it’s a cut, so it hurts in the worst place possible.”

Despite this setback, fans are buzzing with curiosity about Shedeur’s future and where he might land in the upcoming NFL Draft. Even though he played what many consider his worst game of the season against BYU, throwing for only 208 yards along with two touchdowns and two interceptions, he is still seen as one of the top prospects for the 2025 NFL Draft, likely to be the first passer off the board.

Addressing the swirling draft rumors, Shedeur made it clear that he hasn’t been paying much attention to social media or outside opinions. “Honestly, bro, I haven’t really even been on my phone. I haven’t really been on Twitter or anything like Instagram, social media-wise, because it’s just, well, one is negativity but two, it’s just like, bro, I’m not going to value nobody’s opinion.” Ahh, he made it clear that he wants his performance throughout the season to speak for him.

The quarterback added, “I know God is going to put me in the right place; I know everything is going to work out for the right reason so I’m not really too concerned about anything when it comes to the draft process or anything like that; I’m not worried about that.”

See, from breaking the Buffaloes single-season passing record to the Hail Mary touchdown pass, Shedeur gave his best. One bad performance can definitely not decide his future. He is a unique talent and his leadership qualities have made him a standout player throughout his college career. Moving forward, let’s discuss if he will attend the 2025 NFL Draft.

Will Sheduer Sanders attend the 2025 NFL draft?

Sheduer is a headline magnet, just like his dad. He is back in the headlines once again, but this time it’s not just about his impressive stats on the field. In a surprising announcement, he revealed that he will not be attending the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Yes, you heard it right. The reason is a special celebration planned back in Colorado. While he kept the details under wraps, it’s clear that he’s choosing to prioritize a personal celebration over the traditional draft ceremony.

He made this big announcement after an extraordinary season. It is not just the Hail Mary pass that made him shine; he also led the FBS in multiple passing categories. He led after throwing for over 4,000 yards, with 37 touchdowns and just 10 interceptions. Do you know his pass efficiency rating was even more impressive? It was 168.8, and then he contributed four rushing touchdowns, bringing his total to 41 for the year.  However, it hasn’t all been smooth sailing for Sanders after the Alamo Bowl game. But despite the setback, Shedeur is focused on his future. Where do you see him playing next?
