Shedeur Sanders is ready to dominate the Big 12 this year. After months of grueling training sessions and focused work with his receivers, he has been positioned as the Colorado Buffaloes’ undisputed offensive spearhead. However, a playful jab from his brother hints at a potential trust issue off the field.
During a recent break in the intense training session at Colorado’s facility, Coach Prime decided to lighten the mood with a fun game for his sons. Shedeur Sanders, Deion Sanders Jr., and Shilo Sanders all joined in as their dad aimed questions at them in a “who’s most likely to…” game.
The video by Well Off Media on June 4 captured this fun moment as Deion Sanders kept the questions light, asking things like, “Who’s most likely to get married first?” and “Who’s most likely to have a baby first?” Then, the coach threw in a trick question: “If somebody needed something like needed a ten, a $100, grand, 10 band who would be the first one let them borrow?”

Shilo wasted no time pointing the finger at Shedeur, jokingly saying, “I can’t trust Shedeur though, cuz Shedeur be like ‘I’m gonna pay you back bro’ but he’s a scammer. If you know him personally.” This playful jab hints at a lighthearted sibling rivalry, but it also sparks curiosity about Shedeur’s financial habits. While the truth behind his borrowing and lending tendencies remains a mystery to the public, recent speculation suggests a more “greedy” side might exist.

Shedeur Sanders isn’t just a top-earning college athlete; his name also carries immense weight and influence. The $4.6 million-worth quarterback has already landed deals with Gatorade and others, dating back to his time at Jackson State. However, many fans were outraged when he missed out on the EA Sports College Football 25 cover opportunity, which went to his teammate Travis Hunter. Some, like RJ Young, speculated, “it’s because he [Shedeur] commands a higher price tag than Travis Hunter.”
While missing the cover might seem like a loss, it’s not a huge financial blow for him. EA Sports pays all players in the game a standard fee of $600. While Hunter might get extra for the cover, it’s likely not a significant difference. However, this situation shows Shedeur’s business sense. He understands his worth and negotiates accordingly. He seems focused on building his brand smartly, not acting “greedy” or like a “scammer.” While Shilo might have said it on a lighter note, Shedeur’s approach to finances could be seen as quite strategic.
