Shedeur Sanders is already one of the most popular players in the NFL. His entry into the NFL sent shockwaves through the league and he was immediately one of the most talked about rookies of recent memory. Sanders has done a remarkable job thus far not only competing on the field but being a leader off-the field.
However, his mother is going viral over what she is choosing to wear to NFL games.
“She’s 50 And Wearing That?” Shedeur Sanders’ Mother Goes Viral For Questionable Outfit At 2nd NFL Game

Over the weekend, Shedeur Sanders’ mom Pilar returned to the NFL sidelines despite criticism:
After her two sons, Shedeur and older brother Shilo, landed in the NFL, the 50-year-old has stolen the spotlight over the course of preseason, turning heads with her risque fashion choices and being slammed for her ’embarrassing’ behavior.
Yet the backlash hasn’t deterred Pilar – who is separated from the NFL stars’ father Deion – as she blocked out the noise to cheer on Shilo during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers‘ preseason win against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday.
Pilar, who is also mother to daughter Shelomi Sanders, shared a video of herself strutting into Acrisure Stadium at the weekend.
After wearing outfits inspired by her sons’ jersey numbers over the past couple of weeks, she once again sported another custom look.
She showed off a sliver of her toned stomach in a tight-fitting black crop top with images of Shilo in action and his No 28 emblazoned across the front in a fiery red.

She complimented the baby tee with matching tracksuit pants with the Sanders last name scrawled down the side. She topped off the look by heavily accessorizing with a belly chain, gold hoop earrings and two chained necklaces.
The mother-of-three pouted at the camera before leaning in and seductively whispering, ‘let’s run it back.’
Pilar’s eye-catching video comes just days after she was heavily criticized for her preseason antics.
With both Sheduer and Shilo making it to the NFL after playing college ball in Colorado with their father, it appears Pilar will be a busy woman, traveling the country to take in their careers – much to the annoyance of some football fans.
Earlier this month, she was ripped by Cleveland Browns fans after traveling to watch Shedeur – fourth-choice quarterback – make his own first appearance in the pro game.
She watched on from the sidelines on the day and, after the game, shared a video of herself celebrating the occasion. The caption read: ‘Aaaaaand you know itttt!!! Momma’s always present!’
Some fans, however, were not impressed by Pilar’s actions and swiftly made their feelings known by responding in the comments to her Instagram post.
One fan wrote: ‘I would be embarrassed if my 60-year-old mom conducted herself like that’. For clarity, Pilar Sanders is 50.

‘She acted like a kid,’ another said. Meanwhile one user brutally commented: ‘She is so annoying’.
One fan, however, did leave a lengthy comment. They said: ‘But as a mother pulling up to my son’s games, I would conduct myself differently. This is young woman behavior. You are so fine.
‘You dont have to be posting pic licking your teeth and wiggling. Im not hating at all, but her sons are so respectful and respected by many in the world, that she should just carry herself showing more class’.
A week later, she made another appearance, this time for Shilo’s professional debut with the Buccaneers.
In a series of videos and photos, Pilar showed off her custom red dress and vlogged her experience at the game.
Shilo also enjoyed a productive debut, and has turned himself into a fans’ favorite in Tampa Bay in a very short space of time.
It is as yet unclear whether he will make the final roster ahead of the season, but he is being tipped to be picked up elsewhere should he fall short in Tampa Bay.
