Shedeur Sanders is on the damage control. Following his (in) famous “Mid” comment on former CU player Xavier Smith, the blaring communication gap in Colorado alarmed the fans. With his allegations, Smith not only brought all the limelight to the communication gap but also questioned Shedeur Sanders’ leadership abilities. To compensate for this, the QB has already started interacting more with his co-players. However, he might have gone a tad too far this time.

“They said you have some type of award called getting strapped up,” Shedeur Sanders jokingly said to Mathis, asking if he accepts the award. Just when Mathis wound that up by rejecting it, Shedeur chimed in with the features of the WR. “He’s been accepted with start wrinkles in his forehead, plus he got a fade,” the QB added, mimicking a funny creased brow expression, edging him to say yes.

Despite all the bullying, Mathis wasn’t going to nod yes to the funny award they were offering him. Shedeur Sanders and the group were left dejected, since their tricks didn’t work. Well, Mathis has been here long enough to be well aware of all the tactics Shedeur Sanders and Co. would pull. Kaleb Mathis committed to Colorado as a preferred walk-on in 2022 in an attempt to reconnect with his father, who followed Deion Sanders to Colorado from Jackson State. The decision seems to be turning out just nice.
Kaleb Mathias at Colorado
The 2023 season as a freshman saw only limited action for Mathis. The WR played in 12 games, starting 0 of them. Among these 12 games, Mathias had 6 total receptions for 38 yards with his longest reception being a 14-yard one during the week 12 clash against Utah.
However, not that Shedeur Sanders and other star WRs like Travis Hunter are shifting to the NFL from the next season, Mathis can expect to see some more action. Being the DB coach’s son, Kaleb Mathis shoulders high expectations from his team. “Just the winning culture that I know is about to come,” Mathis had said when he initially committed to the Buffs. It would be in the 2025 season that he would be expected to stand true to it.
