Father’s Day brought double the fun for the Sanders family this year! Shilo Sanders, CEO of the “Headache Gang” kicked off the day with a heartwarming and playful gift exchange. He surprised his dad Coach Prime, with two footballs emblazoned with “COWBOYS,” a nod to Deion’s legendary NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys.

Shilo entered Deion’s house, saying, “Try to get him to sign this football for me.” He then showered his dad with hugs and kisses who was still lying on his bed. 

Shilo Sanders documented the entire event on his Instagram story, capturing the warm embrace as he approached his dad for a signature. “Has anyone told you you’re a great dad?” Shilo asks jokingly, adding “Best coach ever. Best coach dad ever!” before revealing the ultimate gift. “You getting something for the Father’s day. Here, a Deion Sanders signed football” Shilo said laughing his heart out. Soon the room was filled with smiles, solidifying the lighthearted moment.

But Shilo’s story doesn’t end there. He follows up with a series of heartwarming photos from last year’s Buffaloes games, showcasing the father-son bond on the field. From Coach Prime tying Shilo’s neck chain mid-game to post-touchdown celebrations, the pictures evoke a sense of nostalgia.

Now Deion also joined the social media lovefest, sharing glimpses from 2016 to 2018 featuring quality moments with his teenage children. From cooking to coaching, Coach Prime showcased his dedication in every role.

And the most touching aspect? Shilo, worth a massive $1.1 million, prioritized creating lasting memories for his dad over flashy gifts. Looks like it’s Shilo’s signature gifting style.

Shilo Sanders hints at a priceless gift

Deion Sanders and his sons took a playful turn on “Well Off Media” with a fun game of “Who’s Likely To…?” earlier this June. The Buffaloes’ head coach threw some tricky questions at Shilo Sanders, Shedeur, and Deion Sanders Jr., including “Who’s the first one to actually get Dad a gift?” All fingers pointed to Deion Jr. stating him to be quite “spended.”

The real shocker came next. Deion asked, “Who out of the three never gets Daddy nothing?”  The brothers unanimously pointed at Shilo, but the quick-witted safety responded, “I give you my time,” leaving everyone in splits.  It seemed like a funny answer, but on Father’s Day, Shilo proved there’s more to a gift than a price tag.

He focused on creating lasting memories and bonding moments, a flashier display of affection than any expensive present. Looks like Shilo’s unique approach seems to have scored a touchdown with Coach Prime.
