Safety Shilo Sandеrs’ rеcеnt strugglеs on thе fiеld havе sеnt shockwavеs through thе Colorado Buffaloеs’ Spring practicе. With frequent fumbles and missed tackles, the star safety’s offseason training has hit turbulence, leaving Coach Prime & Co. visibly frustrated.

Even after being given proper instructions, Sandеrs’ еrrors pеrsist, with a controvеrsial latе hit sparking criticism from naysayers. Howеvеr, Sandеrs rеfusеs to stay silеnt in thе facе of nеgativity, promises to bounce back this season.

In a bold move, Shilo has fired back at his haters in a recent video by Well Off Media. “If you all have downloaded PFF and paid $90 and you see my missed tackle percentage was 12% last year. That means at 100 people, I missed 12 tackles. So you all do that and teach me how to tackle after you all do that,” expressed Sanders. He further asserted, “I gave up 170 total yards in passing last year with zero touchdowns.”

However, Sanders’ defensive stance was met with playful banter from WR/CB Travis Hunter. Curious about Sanders’ statements, Hunter interjected teasingly, asking, “What are you talking about?”

He responded, “I am telling them ’cause they be, you know, they be hating on me, bro, so I am just giving them the numbers.” Undeterred, Hunter continued to poke fun and questioned, “How many times, man? How many times?” Sanders, in response to Hunter’s jests, got defensive in his statement and added, “I’ll be having to cover the fastest dude,” and emphasized his commitment to covering the fastest opponents on the field.

Shilo Sanders made a blunder during Spring practice

During an earlier intra-squad scrimmage, Sanders attempted to tackle CU RB Micah Welch after the whistle had already blown, raising concerns about the player’s safety and sportsmanship. Despite the play being dead, Sanders proceeded with a late hit on Welch, which intensified scrutiny on his conduct. The hit involved helmet-to-helmet contact, a similar infraction led to his ejection last season during the game against UCLA.

Sanders’ aggressive style may be a part of his Headache Gang’s playing style, but the late hit during spring practice raises questions about his sportsmanship and adherence to protocols. Such actions, if they occur in a real-time matchup, would undoubtedly incur penalties.

With the Spring Game and NCAA football season looming, Coach Prime is expected to exert significant pressure on Sanders to ensure he is adequately prepared for the upcoming challenges.
