Shedeur Sanders knows his family so well he can even remember iconic quotes as Coach Prime’s son impresses when put to the test by Darius Sanders, as he prepares for the 2025 NFL Draft.
The 22-year-old Colorado Buffaloes quarterback will graduate to the professional scene after a memorable campaign in the NCAA; where he passed for 4134 yards and 37 touchdowns, leading his side to the Alamo Bowl.
But he also shines away from the football field too and shows great attentiveness to his family, which is one of the core values in Deion Sanders‘ approach to life as well as his coaching philosophy.
“I’m going to give you a quote from a member of the Sanders family. You got to tell me who said it: ‘I just broke a controller last night, I ain’t going to lie to you,'” Darius Sanders asked Shedeur, who wasted no time identifying the culprit as his older brother.
What do Deion Sanders’ kids do? Who are they?
Deion Sanders Jr., dubbed Bucky, is the only one who has a thing for smashing games controllers according to Shedeur, but the moment highlights just how connected the youngster is to his four siblings.
The eldest child of the 57-year-old two-time Super Bowl winner, who also played professional baseball, is Deiondra. Born in 1992, she is a communications director for Sc3 Sports Management and recently had her own child.

Then comes Deion ‘Bucky’ Jr., who entered the world on December 1 in 1993 and forged a career in music with tracks such as Swaggin, Money Old and Kandy. Next is Shilo, born in 2000, who made a push for the NFL too.
The 24-year-old played for Jackson State but then followed his father and brother to the Buffaloes, where he played as a safety. He’s set to push to enter the NFL in 2025 alongside his younger brother, Shedeur.
Finally is Shelomi, the baby of the group. Born in July 2004, the young woman plays college basketball with the University of Alabama at Birmingham Blazers but notably fell out with her father over that decision. They have since reconciled.
