Personal news: I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining the squad @DNVR_Buffs to continue covering Colorado football.
Grateful and ready to add to something special! @DNVR_Sports
I asked Shedeur how comfortable he’d be in a “rebuild” situation in the NFL:
“I don’t think Jackson State or Colorado had a winning history before I got there … whoever sees the value in that will be lucky to get me.”
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski: “The situations were invaluable for Shedeur.”
Stefanski says Shedeur will “get a ton of reps next week” in the second preseason game vs. the Eagles.
This is wild … four of the five offensive linemen blocking for Shedeur Sanders on this play were waived by the Browns today.

Coach Prime on Shedeur surprising him: “These shenanigans put a damper on it.”
“I haven’t seen my son in a long time so that was quite emotional for me.”
“I’m still a dad.”
Warren Sapp on how he had to switch his coaching style up for Tawfiq Thomas.
“Oh my God, he drove me crazy … He was not coming over to my side so I had to come over to his side.”
Coach Warren Sapp’s message to Colorado QB Kaidon Salter:
“When you have that ball in your hand, you’re carrying the hopes and dreams of this whole university.”
LaJohntay Wester says he has some academic things to take care of before he can officially wear jersey No. 1.
Says he will, and may be wearing it as soon as this weekend.
I asked Deion Sanders about LB Jeremiah Brown, who withdrew from the portal yesterday: “I’m happy … he’s like my kid.
“He calls me about everything else … and he didn’t call me for that so I knew he was being influenced by something else.”
(Don’t mind Coach trolling me 😭)
