This is an emotional time for the Sanders, especially Deion Sanders. The 2025 season is going to be the first time the second-year Colorado HC won’t be coaching his sons Shedeur Sanders and Shilo Sanders. Both are eligible for this year’s NFL draft. But Coach Prime previously told the media that he’s happy being a college football coach. Despite this declaration, there was always a scenario where he could change his mind about coaching in the NFL. And it’s all to do with his sons. But that may never be for its sports gone entertainment in the Sanders’ household.
The highly popular docuseries Coach Prime The Show is back with another season. On January 9, Good Morning America gave fans a first brief glance in their latest YouTube episode where Shedeur Sanders was asked what keeps him sane in football. His reply was “Being able to listen to my dad, being able to get his advice.” As the focus panned to Deion Sanders, he labeled the clip as “emotional” because as much as it’s hard to accept, this past season was the last time he’ll be playing together with his kids. Then the topic shifted to his NFL chances where he said, “The only way I would consider is to coach my son. Not son okay? Sons.” So, what’s the problem there?

There’s no 100% chance that Deion Sanders would get an NFL job even if both his sons sign up for the same team, which is another remote possibility. But there’s one big hurdle to this. While Shedeur is entering the 2025 NFL draft as a top prospect, his older brother seems to have found a different calling. He’s now replacing his football gear with musical equipment.
Shilo Sanders previously mentioned that he wanted to be known as more than just a football player. And now, he’s making his dreams come true. The 24-year-old followed in his family’s footsteps by making waves in the music industry. And it’s not hard to see where the interest comes from. Two decades ago, Deion Sanders also released his first album titled Prime Time featuring 16 tracks. Now Shilo’s 15-track debut album Hate 2 Love is on fire. Can you guess his biggest fan?

Pilar Sanders is the biggest fan of Shilo Sanders’ music
Nothing new there. Whether it’s sports or music, Pilar Sanders goes to lengths to make her kids feel seen and appreciated. Shilo Sanders’ “UFO” became a hit, a track which his mother couldn’t be more proud of. Just a few days ago, she posted a video of her vibing to her son’s music in her car with her handsome pet. Her caption summed up her joy and pride – “A Flex – Vibing to your son’s Entire album cuz it’s 🔥🔥🔥” Pilar is one lucky mom to get a chance to vibe to her own son’s music.
Still, music runs in their blood. Deion Sanders released a charting album. Deion Sanders Jr. is a musical genius himself. He dropped out of college football to pursue his interest and now he’s producing and releasing his own music. This venture gave Shedeur Sanders the confidence and opportunity to release his hit track “Perfect Timing” back in May.

Shilo Sanders’ new interest slimmed down Deion Sanders’ NFL chances. But there’s still a chance that his safety son could get drafted in the pro league. Even if not, he’s already setting a foundation where he’ll find purpose and happiness. But one thing’s undeniable — the Sanders men have the best of both worlds.
