Did Coach Prime Asks Raiders’ Antonio Pierce To Draft Sanders?
College football media has been buzzing with rumors of a potential move from Sanders to the New York Giants. This was exciting news for Giants fans whose team has had a less-than-pleasant 2024 season. However, a clip of Coach Prime asking Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce to draft his sons has been circulating through social media, dashing the hopes of Giants fans.
The clip features footage of Deion Sanders sharing the stage with Pierce at an event in Vegas. Sanders could be heard saying, “You are truly the best … I need you to draft those Sanders boys.”
What this means for Shedeur and Shilo Sanders is currently uncertain, but Coach Prime has repeatedly emphasized his intention to help select an ideal NFL environment for his sons. This makes a Shedeur-Raiders move all the more likely.
