Deion Sanders has made a name for himself in the football world both on and off the field. Once deemed the best shut down corner in the NFL, the 58-year-old has turned to coaching in his later days. After starting out at Jackson State (2020-2022) Sanders took the lead job for the Colorado Buffaloes in 2023 where he is currently employed.
However, some recent comments he made defending his son’s sexist comments have surfaced, and fans aren’t too happy.

Deion Sanders Defends Son’s Sexist Remarks
Just as Shilo Sanders defended Shedeur Sanders, so did Deion Sanders.
Thankfully, Deion did not exhibit any anti-femininity.
Considering Shilo’s recent social media feud with Browns beat writer Mary Kay Cabot, Deion stated that his son was simply standing up for his younger brother after Cabot suggested that Deshaun Watson should replace Shedeur at quarterback as soon as possible.
“We don’t talk about nobody,” Deion said on “The Barbershop” with Garrett Bush, as transcribed by Pro Football Talk. “We don’t do nothing to nobody. I know Shilo had a little altercation that he spoke up for his brother. You’ve got to understand, man, that’s his brother.
“And, God bless Mary Kay’s soul, that’s his brother. I mean, she said something, he said something, like media is different today. I know a lot of people don’t respect the old school. I do, because I grew up in that era that we didn’t have a say so … But Shilo spoke up for his brother, and he was ridiculed for that.”
Here is the video:
Fans immediately reacted to Deion Sanders’ comments:
This is the problem when you draft Shedeur. You get a clown show rodeo.
Enabling father. Those comments were clearly not okay and instead of saying his son shouldn’t have said it, he just defends him and tries to make it status quo
The Sanders clan is getting as annoying as the Ball clan. Except the Ball kids are actually talented enough to play pro ball.
Deion has turned into a clown and his kids are entitled and disgraceful. Of course Watson should be the starting QB, Shedeur is not a good NFL QB not every good college QB makes a good NFL QB. These are facts, it’s about winning and Sheduer isn’t good enough.
If Watson is healthy, he should get a shot. Sanders too. This kid telling her to go make a sandwich is about what I’d expect from him tbh. Mary has covered the browns forever and knows a lot more about that team than Shadeur’s brother.
