The bond between Deion Sanders and his four children is strong. Whether he's sticking up for Shedeur Sanders ahead of the NFL draft or sending sneakers to his daughter, Shelomi Sanders, Coach Prime seems to make time for his family.
However, it should be assumed that, with the bright personality possessed by their father, some of his attributes, such as his sense of humor, were passed along to the next generation.
During a Twitch livestream, Shilo Sanders was with friends as each shared their impressions of Coach Prime.
Shilo said in a spot-on impression, "If you don't wake up before 7 a.m., you not a real man."
That line from Shilo's impression comes from an earlier conversation he had with his father, who was lecturing him about sleeping in.
Dom, Shilo's creative director and friend, attempted an impersonation by saying in his best Deion voice, "Dawg. You ain't gettin' no trust fund because I don't trust you...and we don't have no funds!"
After Dom's impression, Shilo ran out of the room laughing.
The 25-year-old former Colorado safety is now a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He joined the franchise as an undrafted free agent and is competing for a spot on a crowded depth chart behind Antoine Winfield Jr. and Marcus Banks at free safety.

One Buccaneers insider, Scott Reynolds of the Pewter Report, believes it will be an "uphill climb" for Sanders to make the final 53-man roster in Tampa Bay.
In his collegiate career, Sanders had 170 combined tackles, four tackles for loss, one sack, one interception, six passes defended, five forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries in 34 career games.
