Shedeur Sanders, the Colorado Buffaloes' standout quarterback, hasn't even left college football yet, but his NFL prospects are already a hot topic.
Are the Cowboys stealing Shedeur from the Raiders?
For months, Raiders fans have embraced the idea that Deion Sanders' son is destined to their team.
However, recent speculation has thrown a wrench in that narrative, linking Sanders to the Dallas Cowboys instead-a possibility that has ignited ionate reactions.
The latest buzz started when NFL Rookie Watch reported on November 20 that Sanders had accepted an invitation to play in the East-West Shrine Bowl, a showcase for top collegiate players.
While the invitation itself was noteworthy, the event's location-AT&T Stadium, home of the Cowboys-sent NFL scouts and fans into a frenzy.
Coupled with rumors that Deion Sanders shares a strong relationship with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, whispers of a potential Dallas destination for Shedeur began gaining traction.
Raiders fans want Shedeur in Vegas
However, Raiders fans aren't buying the hype.
Some argue that Sanders has shown too much affection for Las Vegas to consider Dallas seriously.
His recent social media activity, including tweets that seemingly celebrate Raiders losses, has fueled fan theories that the quarterback sees Las Vegas as his future home.
Additionally, many point to his ties with NFL legend Tom Brady, a close friend of Deion Sanders, as evidence that Shedeur might prefer the West Coast.
On the other hand, ers of the Cowboys' connection cite Deion Sanders' ties to Dallas, where he spent a portion of his Hall of Fame career.
They believe his relationship with Jones and the allure of America's Team could sway Shedeur toward Texas.
Still, skeptics question how realistic the move is, given the Cowboys' existing $240 million investment in quarterback Dak Prescott.
As one fan put it, "They've already paid serious bank for Dak. What happens to him if Shedeur comes in?"
While fan debates rage on, Shedeur Sanders' NFL destination remains a mystery.
Whether he ends up with the Raiders, Cowboys, or another team entirely, one thing is certain: he will be one of the most sought-after players in the 2025 NFL Draft.
