Shedeur Sanders comes to the rescue as Coach Prime is weighed down with criticism from a false media narrative. According to the claims, the Buffs HC made it “mandatory” for players to be present to “support Shedeur as a rapper” who opened for Lil Wayne during the Prime Weekend. It was claimed that Coach Prime even threatened to dismiss those players who were absent. 

If it were a different time, Shedeur Sanders might have been the first to stand up to his father’s defense because the whole matter’s got to do with him. But it’s only days after the thick of the rumor that the Buffs QB is opening his mouth on what really happened at the Coach Prime-Lil Wayne concert. See what he has to say.

Well Off Media’s latest episode on June 18 on YouTube captured a brief conversation that Deion Sanders Jr. had with his brother Shedeur Sanders about the concert shenanigans. Just like everyone else, the Buffs QB exclaimed his surprise saying, “Bro that crazy ‘cause we didn’t even know we was going to perform… Dad ain’t even know we going to perform. But I don’t even say nothing back bro ‘cause if you knew, they didn’t even know if we was going to perform ‘cause they messed up the lights bro. They couldn’t see who was on stage.”

The allegations are crazy and far-fetched, more so after Shedeur Sanders gave his verdict. It was a free Lil Wayne concert, something people would pay for even if it wasn’t free. While the 22-year-old could have lashed back at the critics, something about his tone when he said “I don’t even respond no more bro” makes us think he learned his lesson from his previous social media scandals.

This offseason, Shedeur Sanders landed in social media hot water more than once. When Buffs former DB Xavier Smith left Colorado, he claimed that Deion Sanders didn’t try to get to know him and that he was “destroying guys’ confidence.” Shedeur Sanders quickly swooped in to post, “Ion even know him, tbh. Bro had to be very mid at best.” This comment caused him a flurry of backlash from the public who slammed his attitude. 

Another instance where he got trolled by his comment was when former QB2 Gavin Kuld made a comparison between Shedeur Sanders and Noah Fifita on how they spend their NIL money. When Kuld called him selfish, he lashed out on social media saying, “I learned sometimes you have to take the high road. @GKuld I’ll spare you only this 1 time.” His “high road” claim didn’t sit well with the public who slammed him for hypocrisy and immaturity. Do you think his recent innocent response to the Wayne concert will garner any bizarre responses? Let’s wait and see.
