Shedeur Sanders, rookie quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, has been fortunate to have a father like Deion ‘Coach Prime’ Sanders, who has plenty of NFL experience. One of Deion Sanders’ longest tenures in the league was with the Dallas Cowboys, where he gained firsthand experience with the great business mind of team owner Jerry Jones.
Deion Sanders had some great things to say about Jerry Jones in Netflix’s ‘America’s Team’ series about the Dallas Cowboys. Coach Prime praised Jones’ ability for taking a team that was clearly struggling and mold it into the most profitable team in the league

“Everyone in life wants to be wanted. And Jerry Jones knew what he wanted, and he knew how to go get it. Jerry has taken something that was down, like four flat tires, man. Now he has one of the sexiest brands in America. He’s dressed that thing up and made it into what he saw. I understand that because I was Prime. Defensive backs weren’t making no money, man. And I had promised my mama that I was going to make enough that she’d never have to work another day of her life. That’s why I created Prime.” Deion ‘Coach Prime’ Sanders said about Jerry Jones in the ‘America’s Team’ series on Netflix.
“That’s why it was a blessing when I got here to Dallas” ⭐️
