It’s always the Sanders’ genes. Be it the cleats, the haute couture, the rap battles, the road-beast trucks, or just life, Deion Sanders has only trickled down the best of his genes to his kids. Shedeur Sanders has tried his hand at almost everything his father was invested in on and off-field, following his footsteps. Even though his paychecks don’t match what his father’s yet, he has already embraced his expensive-everything lifestyle.

Speaking of paychecks, it might take a while for Shedeur Sanders to reach there after considering the fact that he encashes the most NIL money in the whole of NCAA. The amount that Deion Sanders made back in his ’90s NFL days can easily overtake any of today’s above-average NFL players’ salaries. A $51 million paycheck for the five years he played for the Cowboys. And that is only his football income, excluding his MLB and other paychecks. So, it only makes sense for Prime to live each wish of his. Like just casually strolling in the gridiron in a lavish, air-conditioned golf cart worth $30,000 in his Cowboys uniform moments before the practice sessions start.

The black and gold accented cart came with a customized ’21’ number plate indicating his #12 jersey. It was in 1996 that Deion Sanders set the bar for opulence even higher for everyone through this act on Cowboys training grounds. In 2024, Deion Sanders took a trip down that memory lane by posting a clip of him strolling in his expensive golf cart on his Instagram. “Throwback: Coach Prime in ‘96 At @dallascowboys Training Camp,” the caption read. Of Course, that was not the only luxury Deion Sanders indulged in.

Other fine tastes of Deion Sanders

The NFL Hall of Fame spot isn’t the only Hall of Fame spot Prime boasts. Deion Sanders was also included in the GQ Sports Style Hall of Fame. Sparking gold jewelry was a staple in Sanders’s outfits. All 3 of his sons are gladly carrying on this fashion legacy from his father. In fashion, Prime’s motto has always been this: “If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you play good. If you play good, they pay good. If they pay good, you live good.” 

Following his words, Deion Sanders has never settled for anything “not good”. From custom suits to Louis Vuitton bags, Deion Sanders has been a big appreciator of Haute contour. His sons, Shedeur and Shilo, have also inherited this taste of high-end fashion, walking the ramp at the Paris Fashion Week for the Louis Vuitton 2024 Men’s Fall/Winter collection.
