Colorado head football coach and Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders has addressed nepotism allegations after he said in a team meeting that his son Shedeur was coming with him from Jackson State to play quarterback for the Buffaloes.

FS1 analyst and fellow Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe asked Sanders about it on his podcast Club Shay Shay.

"Not nepotism. That ain't nepotism," Sanders responded. "That's real. You better go get the film and watch. That's real."

Sanders coached JSU to a 27-6 record in three years under his leadership. The Tigers won back-to-back SWAC titles in 2021 and 2022 and were undefeated this year before losing to North Carolina Central in the Celebration Bowl.
