Shedeur Sanders' NFL future remains a mystery, as the closer we get to the Draft, the former Colorado star continues to slide down the selection order. Free agency moves haven't helped his case at all. Amid this uncertainty, a glimmer of hope emerges, tied to a visit to his father, Deion Sanders.
Alvin Kamara visited the Colorado Buffaloes
Deion Sanders and his team welcomed a special guest in Alvin Kamara, an NFL star who attended their practice. The New Orleans Saints running back was in Boulder, sparking speculation about a potential connection between his team and Shedeur.
Kamara in Boulder for a reason
Alvin Kamara's presence in Colorado could be explained by the recent hiring of his personal trainer, Andreu Swasey, as the new strength coach for Deion Sanders' team.
But it's hard not to wonder if the running back was there to scout the QB, Coach Prime's son, especially since reports link Shedeur to the Saints, a franchise in the midst of a rebuild.
Shedeur Sanders to the Saints?
The New Orleans Saints are well-positioned to draft a quarterback, holding the No. 9 pick in the NFL Draft. While it's unlikely Kamara has any sway in such decisions, his visit didn't go unnoticed.
Currently, Derek Carr remains the Saints' starting QB, but at 34 and with injury concerns, it's not far-fetched to think they'd target a younger option. Since Drew Brees' retirement in 2020, New Orleans has been searching for a long-term answer at the position. The arrival of Kellen Moore, former Eagles offensive coordinator, could open the door to drafting a future star.
According to most mock drafts, Sanders is the second-highest-rated quarterback, trailing only Cam Ward (Miami Hurricanes). However, his exact draft position remains uncertain.
