Someone Captured Video Of Deion Sanders’ Reaction To The Saints Passing On Shedeur For An Offensive Tackle, And His Face Says It All
Deion Sanders’ reaction to his son, Shedeur Sanders, getting snubbed in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday night said it all.
The former superstar cornerback and his family endured a rough night, with neither of Coach Prime’s sons being drafted.
While SHilo was not expected to be a first-round pick, Shedeur was projected to go pretty early, with the New Orleans Saints tipped to take him at No. 9 overall after Cam Ward came off the board at No. 1, going to the Tennessee Titans.
Shockingly enough, the Saints chose an offensive tackle, selecting Kelvin Banks Jr. out of Texas despite their deficiency at quarterback, given Derek Carr’s injury.
Deion was as surprised as most of us were, and cameras caught his reaction, which you can see below:
Social Media Celebrated Deion Sanders’ Disappointment
The clip drew many reactions online, as many were pleased with what happened.
“I’m here for it. Humble pie freshly served lol,” one fan joked.
“Saints can still take him in the 2nd round 🤷🏽♂️,” someone else pointed out.
“I’m not so sure teams don’t want Shedeur. I think they don’t want to draft Dion! [sic]” said another.
“Cues the music to drown out the disappointment…” another user shared.
The Colorado Buffaloes head coach had previously declared that he would control where his sons would go, but the choice was out of his hands on Thursday, with all 32 teams passing on Shedeur.
The Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers, and New York Giants had the opportunity after the Saints passed on him, but chose to draft otherwise. The QB is likely to come off the board this Friday, with the second round scheduled for tonight.
