Getting Shedeur Sanders' attention is one thing. Getting invited into his inner circle requires considerably more patience.
The Cleveland Browns quarterback opened up about dating in a new Cosmopolitan interview, explaining why he's careful about relationships. Growing up with the Sanders name has given him plenty of experience with attention, including the kind he would prefer to keep at a distance.
Sanders made his priorities clear when discussing the prospect of bringing a partner into his life.
"I protect my family, and I protect who I love,"Sanders told Cosmopolitan. "I'm extremely picky with who comes around."
He explained that interest in the lifestyle surrounding an NFL player can complicate dating. Being Deion Sanders' son adds another consideration for anyone entering that world.

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders was not in the mood to celebrate a 31-point victory Saturday.
The Buffaloes moved to 2-0 with a 52-21 win over Weber State at Folsom Field. Still, Sanders arrived in the media room focused on the points Colorado left on the field, 13 penalties, special teams mistakes and an offensive performance he felt had another level available.
Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns while accounting for five total scores, and running back Micah Welch became the first Buff to rush for 100 yards in a game since 2022. Sanders praised the playmakers who contributed, though the consistent message after the rout remained the same: make the Buffaloes a team capable of winning and dominating.
Here is everything Sanders said following Colorado football's win over Weber State.
"We only scored 52 points," Sanders said. "It should've been a lot more. We're not satisfied with the outcome."

Deion Branch's advice to his group of Louisville wide receivers for this week is to keep the noise outside and stay off the internet.
Turn off the TV — not even SportsCenter — or any kind of media. No "rat poison," as Nick Saban would say.
"The spreads and what we're favored by, that stuff doesn't matter," Branch told the Cardinals, who are favored by 36.5 points against Villanova. "You still have to go out and play the game. We have to go out and execute our plays. I need my guys to perform at a very high level for the team and also for themselves. ... So that's my message to the guys. Don't pay any attention to it. Just come in here and continue to work and push forward."
Louisville won't be overlooking the Wildcats tonight in its 2026 home opener. There was too much to work on in the team's 41-38 season-opening loss to No. 11 Ole Miss. Defensively, the Cards need to limit big plays and prevent completions up the seam. Offensively, they need to make sure that quarterback Lincoln Kienholz settles in sooner and doesn't jump out of the pocket before necessary. Having a full game under his belt will help the Ohio State transfer do that. In his first start, Kienholz completed 62.1% of his passes (18-29) with two touchdowns and became the first Louisville starting quarterback to throw for at least 300 yards in his debut (307 yards) since Kyle Bolin, then a redshirt freshman, threw for 300 yards in a 37-14 loss to Georgia in the 2014 Belk Bowl.

Deion Sanders is still remembered as one of the most iconic players in the NFL's history. His accomplishments while playing for 14 seasons in the league are still remarkable, being an 8-time Pro Bowler, 6-time first-team All-Pro, and the 1994 AP Defensive Player of the Year.
The Pro Football Hall of Famer is also a two-time Super Bowl champion, one with the San Francisco 49ers and the other with the Dallas Cowboys. However, those trophies meant nothing at one point to him.
Sanders won his two Super Bowl trophies back-to-back, with the 49ers in the 1994 season and the following season with the Cowboys. He achieved both of them at the age of 27 and 28, respectively, and became a living icon already at the time. Aside from the Super Bowls, he has also achieved much more and has also played in the Major League Baseball.

He recently admitted that these victories eventually did not provide him with any personal fulfillment and made him feel empty. In a recent interview on Hallow's Coffee with Jeff with Jeff Cavins, Sanders explained, "I thought people, places, and things would give me that, even the accolades. Well, they didn't. I received every darn accolade you could think of. On the journey to go on to the Super Bowl and win, and everybody went out and partied that night. And I couldn't get myself to do it. I didn't have peace."

The Colorado Buffaloes opened the 2026 college football season with an impressive upset victory over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Thursday night.
After falling behind 13-7 with fewer than two minutes left on the clock in the fourth quarter, Buffaloes quarterback Julian Lewis led his team on an eight play, 75-yard touchdown drive to give Colorado a 14-13 lead. The defense came up equally as clutch, blocking a last-second field goal attempt as Deion Sanders' team escaped with victory.
Sanders, meanwhile, remains one of the most polarizing personalities in the game of college football.

Colorado freshman quarterback Julian Lewis hit tight end Charlie Williams for a 20-yard touchdown with 42 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, lifting the Buffaloes to a last-minute, 14-13 win against Georgia Tech on Thursday night in the season opener.
Georgia Tech looked like it could pull off the improbable when quarterback Alberto Mendoza found receiver Dalen Penson for a 42-yard gain, putting the Yellow Jackets in field goal range. But Boo Carter blocked Aidan Birr's 45-yard attempt, and the Buffaloes stormed the field.

For 58 minutes, Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis didn't look ready for Prime -- Coach Deion Sanders -- or prime time.
Good thing for the Carrolton, GA, five-star player the game against Georgia Tech on Thursday was 60 minutes.
Lewis, who had thrown for 64 yards until the final drive, passed for 60 on the Buffaloes' final march. It concluded with 37 seconds left when he found Charlie Williams for a wheel route that went 20 yards and into the end zone.
The PAT gave the Buffaloes a 14-13 lead and they held on by blocking a last-gasp 45-yard field goal by the Yellow Jackets' Aidan Burr.
Georgia Tech started its last drive on the 25 and the first play saw Alberto Mendoza -- yes, he is Heisman winner Fernando's brother -- for 42 yards.

Colorado QB depth chart: Can Julian Lewis, Zach Wilson's brother end post-Shedeur struggles? originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
When Colorado won nine games in 2024, its most in a season since 2016 and its first bowl-game appearance since 2020, it wasn't just because of two-way star Travis Hunter. Elite quarterback play guided the Buffaloes' offense.
While Shedeur Sanders' NFL career has been rocky thus far, he was undoubtedly one of the best passers in the country throughout his final season in Boulder, completing 74% of his passes for 4,134 yards and 37 touchdowns. Since then, however, Deion Sanders hasn't found stability at the quarterback position.
Colorado won just four games in 2025 as starting quarterback Kaidon Salter threw seven interceptions. With Salter now gone, however, Sanders has some intriguing passers around for 2026, led by a former top recruit.
Here's a look at Colorado's new quarterback room entering the 2026 season.

Deion Sanders' buyout details: Here's how much it will cost Colorado to fire head coach originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
By all accounts, Colorado coach Deion Sanders is entering 2026 in a much better position than 2025.
Sanders battled health issues, including bladder cancer, throughout the 2025 offseason, and he went into the year with an unsettled quarterback situation for the first time in his tenure with the Buffaloes. The results were predictable: a regression to 3-9, putting Colorado near the bottom of the Big 12.
With those health issues improved and the hope that Julian Lewis is ready to take the next step at quarterback, Sanders is facing a critical season to get Colorado back on track. If not, his job status could come into question.
Here's a look at Sanders' buyout and what it would cost Colorado to fire him in 2026.

Deion Sanders begins Year 4 at Colorado in the city where he became a legend, as the Buffaloes face Georgia Tech in Atlanta on Thursday.
Sanders played for the Falcons and Braves in the early 1990s, a rare two-sport star in the pros, and remains an iconic figure in Atlanta sports history. Though his legacy could earn him a warm welcome at Bobby Dodd Stadium, that nostalgia won't do much for the Buffs as they try to bounce back from a 3-9 season.
Second-year quarterback Julian Lewis, who starred down the road at Carrollton High School, will lead a Colorado offense that loaded up with transfers in the offseason. That includes receivers Kam Perry (Miami Ohio), DeAndre Moore Jr. (Texas) and Danny Scudero (San Jose State), who are among 43 transfers on the roster.
Speaking of transfers, the Yellow Jackets will roll out a high-profile pair in QB Alberto Mendoza, late of Indiana and brother of the 2025 Heisman Trophy winner, and former Michigan and Alabama running back Justice Haynes, who grew up in suburban Atlanta. Whatever happens there, things figure to look quite a bit different for Tech after Haynes King held down the QB position the last three years.

For Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes, 2026 is a crucial year. Although Sanders arrived in Boulder with a 19-2 record across three seasons at Jackson State, his tenure at Colorado has gone poorly.
Through three seasons, he has a 16-21 record, including a 3-9 finish last year and a 1-8 record in the Big 12. He went 4-8 in his first season in 2023. His lone successful year was a 9-4 finish in 2024, when Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter both had career-best seasons.

DENVER – Former Colorado football player Shilo Sanders testified at his bankruptcy trial here Tuesday, Sept. 1, that a security guard at his school "attacked and ***** aulted" him in 2015 — not the other way around as a Texas state court found in 2022 when it issued an $11.89 million judgment against Sanders.
Sanders, son of Colorado coach Deion Sanders, testified the security guard, John Darjean, also caused him to fear his life, choked him, caused him to "black out" and starting tearing the skin off his arm when he grabbed it in an attempt to confiscate his phone at school.
Sanders testified he was in "excruciating pain" because of it and was "choke-slammed" by Darjean into a corner, causing him to "hit my head as hard as possibly could happen."
"I literally have proof of both of his hands tearing my skin off," Sanders testified.

Shedeur's brother and Deion's son, Shilo, will face a much different kind of test: a bankruptcy trial.

The Indianapolis Colts have completely revamped their defense, and nothing emphasizes that more than comparing last season's initial 53-man roster with this season's initial 53-man roster. While there are only six new players on the offense this season, there are 15 new players on the defense.
Offensively, there are no new additions at quarterback or tight end. Indianapolis has one new running back behind Jonathan Taylor in rookie seventh-rounder Seth McGowan.
On the offensive line, there are two new additions - Jalen Farmer, a 2026 draft pick, and Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, whom the Colts acquired in a trade with the Buffalo Bills. Both players are considered depth pieces.
At wide receiver, they traded Michael Pittman away to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But there are three new additions - seasoned veteran Keenan Allen, seventh-round pick Deion Burks, and veteran Laquon Treadwell, who spent the beginning of the 2024 and 2025 seasons on the practice squad.
Defensively, the Colts have an entirely new linebacker room with the exception of Jaylon Carlies, who started last season on injured reserve (IR). Their other five linebackers - CJ Allen, Bryce Boettcher, Akeem Davis-Gaither, Austin Ajiake and Tahj Chambers - are all new to the initial 53-man roster.

Will the Colorado Buffaloes be on the field today in Week 0 of the college football season?
Unfortunately for Buff Nation, they will have to wait a few more days before Colorado's season kicks off. CU begins its 2026 season on Thursday, Sept. 3, in Atlanta against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Colorado will unveil a nearly entirely refreshed starting lineup, which could include a new starter at every defensive position. Aside from the roster itself, Deion Sanders revamped his coaching staff with two new coordinators, highlighted by Go-Go offense inventor Brennan Marion, a former head coach at Sacramento State.
Marion and his defensive counterpart, Chris Marve, are true leaders, which has been evident throughout fall camp. Both have set their unit's identity heading into Week 1 against Georgia Tech.
While it is a ******* mer that there is now Colorado football in Week 0, CU fans can tune into the opening weekend of college football stress-free.

The Colorado Buffaloes' linebacker core was completely revamped this offseason with Deion Sanders' staff adding three starting-caliber linebackers from the transfer portal. All three have had impressive fall camps, with two making the Butkus Award watch list and the other, Tyler Martinez, recently named to the Hispanic College Football Player of the Year watch list.
Martinez, a New Mexico State transfer, missed most of the 2025 season with an injury, but in the four games he played, he totaled 27 total tackles, four pass breakups, one tackle for loss, one interception and a forced fumble. He showed impressive playmaking ability in limited action, and Colorado hopes he can find that form in 2026.
The award was established only in 2025, with the founding of the Hispanic Football Hall of Fame. The inaugural recipient was Indiana's Fernando Mendoza.
Other players to make the preseason watch list include Mendoza's brother Alberto, who the Buffaloes are likely to face as Georgia Tech's presumptive starting quarterback. Penn State linebacker Tony Rojas and Washington quarterback Demond Williams Jr. are other stars on the list.
"Hispanic athletes are driving the future of college football, and this watchlist ensures their extraordinary achievements get the national spotlight they've earned," said Ron Rivera, HFHOF founding member and former NFL coach, via a press release. "Their stories bring great pride to our community."

INDIANAPOLIS — The Colts are still trying to figure out who will be their primary return men this season.
Unheralded receiver Coleman Owen has handled every punt return in the preseason and he's had help as a kickoff returner from rookies Deion Burks and Seth McGowan.
Figuring out who will be the team's primary return men once the regular season begins is not as easy as simply reading preseason box scores. The Colts, like all NFL teams, must cut the roster from 90 players down to 53 by 6 p.m. Sunday, and Indianapolis special teams coordinator Brian Mason will have to make his decisions at returner based on who's available to him.
For that reason, Mason is keeping his options open.
"We're going to use some different guys at returner throughout practice this week and into games," Mason said.

Saints quietly make late-night trade with 49ers for ex-Raiders fourth-round RB originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The New Orleans Saints made some huge upgrades to the roster this offseason, one of those being the big free-agent signing of Travis Etienne Jr.
He's now the starter, and Alvin Kamara is the RB2, with Keandre Miller the third-string RB. But after adding Etienne, this room got a bit crowded. And yet, the Saints reportedly added another back late on Sunday night.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Saints traded linebacker Deion Jones to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for Zamir White. This is an interesting addition for the Saints, as it might reveal where a few of their injured tailbacks stand.
"Trade: the Saints are sending veteran LB Deion Jones to San Francisco in exchange for RB Zamir White, per sources," Schefter reports.

Hall of Fame defensive back and Colorado coach Deion Sanders has had plenty of recent distractions arising from court dockets.
This week, a Nebraska lawsuit regarding his "Prime" logo came to light — nearly 19 months after it was filed.
The first word of it surfaced on Tony Farmer's Twitter page. He posted the original complaint. Unless it was all one ***** of a coincidence, others started reporting on the case — without crediting Farmer for finding it.
One of those outlets is The Athletic, which possibly has taken an "eff that guy" approach to Farmer given his relentless focus on the Dianna Russini situation. A new article posted by Matt Moret explains that Deion was questioned under oath in late July in the claim filed by Alan Tipp, who contends that he designed the "Prime" logo in 2011 and was never fully and fairly compensated for it. Tipp also alleges that Sanders and other defendants fraudulently induced Tipp to relinquish any rights to his work with false promises.
In a court declaration filed on Friday, Sanders claims he used the logos before he was working with Tipp.

#tipp #filed #deion #hall

Deion Sanders was recently deposed as part of a federal lawsuit accusing the Colorado football coach of defrauding the graphic designer who created his "Prime" logo.
In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Nebraska, Omaha–based graphic designer Alan Tipp alleges that Sanders and his representatives fraudulently induced him into signing away his rights to a pair of logos he first created for the Hall of Fame cornerback in 2011. The two logos—stylized text of the words "Prime" and "Truth"—have since become staples of Sanders's branding during his tenures as the head coach at Jackson State and Colorado.
According to the complaint, Sanders began using the logos around the same time he co-founded Prime Prep Academy in 2011. The design has also appeared in a wide range of commercial partnerships tied to Sanders, the lawsuit says, including Under Armour, Gillette, Jeep, Lamborghini, Aflac, Boost Mobile, and Motorola.
While Tipp initially filed the lawsuit in January 2025, the case's docket was updated on July 30, 2026, to reflect that Sanders was scheduled to be deposed. Front Office Sports has since confirmed that deposition has already taken place. Sanders, merchandise company Prime Time Enterprises, and talent/brand management firm SMAC Entertainment are all listed as defendants in the suit.
Tipp alleges he was approached by Sanders's brand manager and a SMAC Entertainment representative, Sam Morini, shortly after Colorado hired the former Cowboys star in December 2022. According to the claim, Morini sought to have Tipp sign all past, present, and future rights to the logos over to Sanders, who had just been hired by Colorado.

The attorney for Colorado football coach Deion Sanders filed a document in court Aug. 20 that said Sanders would face an undue burden if he is required to testify at his son Shilo's looming bankruptcy trial in Denver while Sanders' team prepares for its season opener at Georgia Tech on Sept. 3.
Sanders' attorney, Harvey Steinberg, also said he hasn't accepted service of a subpoena for Sanders to testify, contrary to court documents filed Aug. 19 by the attorney for the plaintiff in the case, John Darjean.
In his motion to quash the subpoena filed Aug. 20, Steinberg appears to be going all out in his effort to prevent Deion Sanders from testifying in the trial as his son tries to discharge more than $11 million in debt. The trial is expected to last up to five days, conflicting with the travel schedule of Sanders' team, which is leaving for Atlanta on Sept. 1.
"Mr. Sanders is the head coach for the University of Colorado football organization," the motion to quash states. "The CU Buffaloes' first game of the season is set to occur on September 3, 2026 in Atlanta, Georgia. Thus, Mr. Sanders' job obligations require him to continue working with the University, staff, and players to both prepare the team for its September 3 game and to travel with the team to Georgia.
"Common sense dictates that Mr. Sanders' absence from sitting outside the courtroom to await potential testimony will cause him significant and undue personal and professional burdens, and that such a requirement will also significantly impact the CU Buffaloes' preparation for their season opener."

A deputy with the Boulder County Sheriff's Office showed up at the University of Colorado campus last week to serve civil papers to Deion Sanders while the coach was at an open practice and inaccessible.
The officer was informed that the Buffaloes coach was "unavailable at the time to receive receipt of the papers," a spokesperson with the sheriff's office said Wednesday. Sanders is being subpoenaed to testify as part of a bankruptcy trial involving his son, Shilo, that begins on Aug. 31, according to USA Today.
The Colorado athletic department had no additional information. The Buffaloes open the season on Sept. 3 at Georgia Tech.
The deputy arrived on campus at 10:22 a.m. on Aug. 11 with civil papers. It was the day the Buffaloes held an open practice with specific rules in place that nothing observed could be reported, published or shared.
Carrie Haverfield, a senior communications specialist for the sheriff's office, wrote in an email to The **** ociated Press that it's not uncommon for civil papers to take several attempts to serve.

As Hall of Famer Deion Sanders prepares for his fourth season as the head coach at Colorado, the Buffaloes are stumbling and ****** bling as a TV attraction.
Via Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports, the ratings for Colorado games on ESPN fell 67 percent from 2023 to 2025.
It's no surprise. In 2023, Deion was the next big thing in college football — even as a 3-0 start melted to a 4-8 finish. In 2024, the Buffaloes turned it around, going 9-3 in the regular season. (The Buffaloes lost to BYU, 36-14, in their bowl game.)
Last year, without Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, the backslide began. The Buffaloes went 3-9, capping the season with a five-game losing streak.
It's no surprise. Colorado hasn't parlayed the Coach Prime effect into the kind of recruits that can win more games than they lose. This year, the program is fighting a narrative that the players look too small.

Florida State and the National Football Foundation will honor Peter Warrick and his recent induction into the College Football Hall of Fame during the Seminoles' Oct. 31 game against Clemson at Doak Campbell Stadium.
It's part of the NFF's On Campus Hall of Fame salute. Each electee returns to his respective school to accept an NFF Hall of Fame plaque that will stay on permanent display at the institution, and it gives the home crowd an opportunity to recognize the player.
Warrick was one of the most dynamic players not only in FSU history, but in college football. He played from 1996-99 after redshirting in 1995 and was a two-time consensus All-American. He holds the FSU record for career receiving touchdowns with 32, and he compiled a 45-4 overall record during his time in Tallahassee.
A 1999 National Champion, Warrick's 3,517 career receiving yards were the most in ACC history and ranked second on FSU's all-time list. He also ranked second in program history with 207 receptions, 15 100-yard receiving games and an average of 4.81 receptions per game.
Announced in January as FSU's 12th Hall of Fame electee. He joins his former head coach Bobby Bowden (inducted in 2006) and teammate Warrick Dunn (2024) in the College Football Hall of Fame. FSU's other inductees include Marvin Jones (2022), Terrell Buckley (2019), Derrick Brooks (2016), Deion Sanders (2011), Ron Simmons (2009), Charlie Ward (2006), head coach Darrell Mudra (2000), Fred Biletnikoff (1991) and Ron Sellers (1988).

Every college football fan knows there are levels to the sport. There are Ohio State, Indiana, Georgia, Notre Dame and Texas, but you also have Oregon State, Bowling Green and UMass.
Simply put, there are tiers to the college football world, and every year teams shift up or down multiple levels. ESPN slotted all 138 Football Bowl Subdivision teams into 20 tiers ranging from "The safest bets" to "Technically still FBS programs."
ESPN's David Hale places the 2026 Colorado Buffaloes in Tier 15 ******* led "If Indiana can do it...," which is a fascinating placement for Deion Sanders' team, but one that fits the ceiling of the current team.
Hale notes that this tier is also known as the bottom class of the Power Four. He wrote that CU went from a plus-9.5 points-per-game margin vs. Power Four opposition in 2024 to a minus-15.6 margin last year, which was the biggest year-over-year decline. The Buffs also need to develop a running game, which, since Sanders took over, has averaged a meager 3.88 yards per designed run, the worst mark in the Power Four.
Fixing the running game and being more competitive against Power Four opponents likely puts the Buffaloes back on the right track. Two things that are easier said than done.

Former Georgia Bulldogs offensive tackle Bo Hughley is expected to have a significant role for the Colorado Buffaloes and coach Deion Sanders his season. Hughley is in the lead to be the Buffaloes' starting left tackle this fall.
Hughley started games against Auburn and Alabama during Georgia's 2025 season and is a former top-100 recruit. He played a key role in Georgia's overtime win at Tennessee last fall. Hughley earned a 62.1 Pro Football Focus grade, including a 73.9 pass-blocking grade and a 59.3 run-blocking grade. He allowed just three total pressures and appeared in 10 games.
The 6-foot-7, 300-pound offensive tackle has the size and talent to succeed at Colorado. Hughley was ranked as a three-star transfer and has two seasons of eligibility left.
"I'm happy with where Bo (Hughley) is heading, he's not where he has to be yet," Colorado offensive line coach Gunnar White said.
Hughley made Pick Six Previews' All-Transfer team in the Big 12. He is hoping to start for Colorado as the Buffaloes look to improve after going 3-9 in 2025. Coach Sanders is still looking for his first bowl win.
