Deion Sanders 'Happy' with Any Shedeur 2025 NFL Draft Landing Spot amid Giants Rumors

Days after Deion Sanders denied saying that he hopes Shedeur Sanders will play for the New York Giants, the Colorado head coach said he will be "happy" with any quarterback-needy team selecting his son in the 2025 NFL draft.

"Shedeur has told me, he's talked to me intently about all the visits he's had with all the teams, so I know where his heart is, I know where he wants to go," Sanders said in a Wednesday appearance on the Skip Bayless Show (33:45 mark.)

"If it's New York, it's New York. If it's Tennessee, if it's Cleveland, if it's still the Raiders, if it's New Orleans, if it's any of those teams that are seeking a quarterback, I'm happy with it, man, because I know what he's gonna do to the organization. I know what he's gonna do."

Bayless then asked Sanders if he had any interest in orchestrating where his son lands in the upcoming draft.

"No, no, because that's not God's will right now," Sanders said. "I want Shedeur to do what he's consistently done: Excel against all odds.

"I like the hating, I like the naysaying, I like the ignorance, because it makes us feel better about what we do, and it gives him another chip on his shoulder."

Sanders has previously been connected to the Giants, but the odds of the franchise using the No. 3 pick to select him decreased after general manager Joe Schoen signed veteran quarterbacks Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson this week.

The Tennessee Titans have been increasingly tied to Cam Ward at the No. 1 pick.

Sanders is the only other quarterback ranked within the top 32 picks on the B/R NFL Scouting Department's latest 2025 NFL Draft Big Board, so other high-drafting teams like the Browns, Raiders, Jets or Saints could ultimately decide to target him once Ward is off the board.

Day 1 of the 2025 NFL draft is set for April 24 in Green Bay.
