Shedeur Sanders has been raised to play football and is the prized pro athlete among Deion Sanders' three sons. Born during his father's three-year retirement from the NFL, Sanders has been under the tutelage of his Pro Football Hall of Fame father since his Pop Warner days.

Sanders is considered one of the top players in the upcoming NFL draft, with some early projections suggesting he could be selected as high as No. 1. However, his stock has recently taken a hit. In the latest mock draft by Athlon Sports' Luke Easterling, Sanders is projected to be picked No. 21 by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

It's a big week for the idea of the New York Jets selecting Shedeur Sanders at the 2025 NFL draft. In his pre-combine mock, ESPN's NFL draft guru Mel Kiper Jr. had Sanders falling to the Jets at No. 7 overall in Round 1. That's the team's top selection.
