Deion Sanders Accepts Coaching Position for Colorado Buffaloes Football
3-year contract worth $29.5 million
Former NFL star and Pro Football Hall of Famer
Deion Sanders, previously head coach for Jackson State, has accepted a 3-year, $29.5 million deal to coach football for the University of Colorado Boulder.
Sanders is an American football coach and former player. He played in the NFL for 14 seasons, primarily as a cornerback for the Atlanta Falcons, San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys, and Washington Redskins. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011.
Sanders' hiring is a major coup for Colorado, which has struggled in recent years. The Buffaloes have not had a winning season since 2016, and they are coming off a 1-11 record in 2022.
Sanders is known for his fiery personality and his success as a coach. He led Jackson State to a 27-5 record in three seasons, including a 12-0 record and a SWAC championship in 2022.
Sanders' arrival in Boulder is sure to generate excitement and buzz around the Colorado football program. He is a proven winner, and he has a knack for recruiting top talent. With Sanders at the helm, the Buffaloes could be poised for a resurgence in the coming years.
