Everyone, Shedeur Sanders is here with a new look! If you’re one of the fans who fell for the Buffs QB when he was in Trinity Christian-Cedar Hill High School, you’re getting that look back!

Travis Hunter also recently made headlines in his rare cowboy outfit after he attended the PBR World Finals, where he gave John Crimber an encounter he’ll never forget as he turned around to see his “favorite college player” right next to him. The 18-year-old PBR star gave Hunter a performance worth watching as he sealed the round three victory. Hunter’s excitement is evident as he later poses as a cowboy, drawing in lots of attention and cowboy nostalgia, just as Shedeur Sanders is doing now with his new haircut.

Will Shedeur Sanders bring back the JSU power in 2024?

With his new haircut, a fan commented, “That boy went back to 2018,” given the youthful appearance it gave Shedeur Sanders. While playing at JSU in 2021 and 2022, he looked like his younger self before he came with his brother Shilo Sanders and Travis Hunter with Deion Sanders. At Jackson State, he became the first HBCU student to win the Jerry Rice Award after locking 3,231 yards and 30 touchdowns in his starter year 2021. 

2022 in JSU was no less successful as he won the Deacon Jones Trophy as the nation’s top HBCU player by completing 70.6% of his passes for 3,732 yards and 40 touchdowns. The SWAC Offensive Player of the Year didn’t have a fruitful 4-8 debut season at Colorado, recording 3,230 yards and 27 touchdowns. But now, that Jackson State vibe seems to return with the new look as a starter. Hopefully, the looks will transcend to the football field as he fights to relive his JSU success.
