Where will Shedeur Sanders be playing football come this time next season? Well, we know one thing is certain, it will be in the NFL. The Colorado Buffaloes superstar is out of college eligibility. But which team is more of a conundrum.
Sanders has hinted at several locations that he'd be happy landing in, including a recent trip to Las Vegas. And his father Deion has also given clues as to which NFL teams he'd prefer his son not get drafted by.
But one team might have just emerged above all the rest. Sanders is in New York City this weekend to support teammate Travis Hunter as he looks to become only the second Colorado player to ever win the Heisman Trophy (Rashaan Salaam, 1994). However, before attending the ceremony he took time to enjoy the city that never sleeps.
Sanders linked up with New York Giants star rookie receiver Malik Nabers and played some catch on the street on Friday night. Nabers was the No. 6 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, but has found life difficult due to New York's constant struggle at quarterback.
Even despite those struggles, Nabers has 80 receptions for 819 yards and three touchdowns. And help might be on the way soon. The Giants currently hold the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft if the season ended today. It's hard to envision them winning many more games the rest of the way. So there's a fantastic chance that Sanders is on the board when they walk up to make their first-round selection.
There's an obvious need at quarterback. Sanders seems to like the city and the spotlight. He apparently has a good relationship with Nabers. When can we start printing the jerseys?
