The Sanders family stays viral, no matter if it’s on the field, on YouTube, or in a Florida café with a name that sounds like a joke gone too far. Shilo Sanders, Deion’s middle son, lit up the internet again when he dropped a new vlog that mixed family comedy with a little shade aimed straight at his famous pops. The 25-year-old safety may not be locking down wideouts these days after getting cut from Buccaneers for throwing hands at Buffalo Bills TE Zach Davidson, but he’s definitely keeping his dad’s name trending. This time with a priceless comeback to a Karrueche Tran question that had everyone laughing.

At Café Bích Nga in Pinellas Park, Shilo leaned into the humor of the restaurant’s name like only a Sanders could: “I need to bring Bucky here. I need to bring Shedeur here. I need to bring my dad here, but he cool just for the good food. You know what I’m saying? It has nothing to do with the name. All right?” Shilo joked, clearly enjoying himself as diners chuckled along. He wasn’t done clowning.

Next came his spot-on Prime Time impersonation: “Baby, you know who I am? I’m Prime Time. Baby, I got 5 kids.” A woman in the café, not missing a beat, fired back: “Where Karrueche at?” The timing was flawless as the internet ate it up, and suddenly Shilo’s vlog wasn’t just about the restaurant anymore.

Rumors about Deion and actress Karrueche Tran had already been floating for months, but now Shilo’s bit had fans connecting even more dots. For context, Karrueche Tran has been loosely tied to Coach Prime since summer. The whispers started in July when she was spotted supporting Deion during his bladder cancer surgery.

She later appeared in a documentary about his health battle, visibly emotional while describing the procedure. By August, she was being coy in interviews, admitting she was “dating” without naming names. And when Sanders himself was pressed, he ducked faster than a cornerback on a double move, joking about a “bad connection” before ending the interview.

What’s going on with Deion Sanders and Karrueche?

Let’s rewind. Not even two years ago, Prime looked ready to settle down. But then, he and longtime partner Tracey Edmonds shocked everyone by breaking off their engagement. Their joint statement read like the cleanest breakup ever: “We have mutually decided that it is best for us to move forward in life AS FRIENDS and have made this decision with love in our hearts, respect for each other, and appreciation for the time we’ve shared together.” 

That’s when Tran’s name started popping up. She wasn’t just linked casually either. She was there, in the hospital, when Prime faced one of the toughest stretches of his life. Cameras caught her fighting back tears as she admitted, “We are dealing with bladder cancer,” before Sanders was wheeled off for surgery. Anybody with a pair of eyes knows that is more than a friendship.

Fast-forward a few weeks, and Deion’s dodging questions with that trademark grin. On Asante Samuel’s podcast, he faked a tech glitch when her name came up. Classic Prime. When he doesn’t wanna talk, he makes sure you laugh while he’s not talking. But Karrueche? She didn’t dance around it quite as much. On WHAT’s NEXT w/ J. Ryan, she made it clear: “Yeah, I’m dating… If I wasn’t happy and content and feeling good in my situation, I’m not wasting my time.” She didn’t drop Deion’s name, but the overlap is loud.

For Deion, though, juggling it all has never been easy. He’s coaching at altitude, dealing with health battles, and still raising the profile of Colorado football every Saturday. Add in paparazzi-level curiosity about his love life. That’s a lot even for Prime. Bottom line? We may never get the official rollout on “Deion + Karrueche.” They might play coy forever. But between Tran’s hints, Deion’s dodges, and Shilo’s jokes, the writing is pretty much on the wall.
