Deion Sanders’ fun moment with son Shedeur on FaceTime

Well, initially, two Buffs were at the center of the Heisman hype- Shedeur and Hunter. But right now as found in Romi Bean’s tweet, the Buffs QB no longer holds a place. But so what? After all, Hunter has been his best buddy. So how could he not be part of the Buffs two-way star’s special evening? However, looks like Shedeur is having some problems with the fast life of New York City. After all, having been born in Texas, Deion’s son is not quite familiar with the crowded streets and transport. That’s when Coach Prime FaceTimed his son when the QB said to his father, “You think I’m actually gonna go on the subway? I don’t know where I’m at?” And what better timing for the Buffs HC to pull Shedeur’s leg?

Deion said in reply, “Nah, you have got cameras around and they gonna watch you get robbed.” Apparently, this might come off as Coach Prime’s concern for Shedeur roaming around in New York. But it’s plain tease. Now that Shedeur is no longer hailed as a top contender in the Heisman race and Hunter will be robbing the trophy away, will be captured on the camera. Well, even though, the Buffs QB will not be in the spotlight on the Heisman stage, New York welcomed him with open arms.

Just after landing in New York, the Buffs QB paid a visit to the Nike House of Innovation. Located at 650 5th Avenue, the store gave Shedeur a warm welcome. And what better place to go for shopping than New York? Being one of the big faces of the sportswear brand, he went on a shopping spree. Later on, US Nike Football also posted a picture of Shedeur with a broad smile stepping out of the store carrying four heavy shopping bags. 

If you think, that’s all the Buffs QB did on his first day in NYC, then hold on! When you are in New York how could you just miss the Knicks’ NBA Cup Game? Shedeur was spotted at the Madison Square Garden for the game on Wednesday, December 11. Post which speculations started to flare up about the possibility of Deion’s son landing with the New York Giants in the NFL. Right after that, a video started to do rounds.

As NFL reporter Ryan Dunleavy posted, “So, #Giants Malik Nabers and Shedeur Sanders are playing catch on the streets of NY while Sanders is in town for Heisman.” The Malik Nabers-Shedeur Sanders sighting couldn’t have come at a more interesting time. The Giants will be having a second overall pick in the 225 NFL Draft. So do we take the video seriously?
