Video: Deion Sanders tips Dolphins should pick son Shedeur in 2025 NFL Draft | News, scores, highlights, stats and rumors

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders apparently sees the Miami Dolphins as a landing spot for his son, Shedeur Sanders.

Sanders hinted at the possibility of the Dolphins taking the quarterback in the 2025 NFL draft during an appearance Sunday on the Nightcap show with Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson.

“What do you do business-wise when you’re the Dolphins?” Sanders said around the 47 minute mark (h/t Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk). “Do you go into the draft and take a quarterback, which is what I mean, or do you say, ‘Tua, let’s take a look at this, let’s see what we’re going to do.’ Is his health more important than that?”

Johnson then brought up Shedeur on the way to the Dolphins before Sanders seemingly confirmed the message.

“So you just had the epiphany, huh? I tried to give you the revelation,” he said.

Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered his third diagnosed concussion in the last three seasons in Week 2 and landed on injured reserve. The Dolphins have struggled in his absence, losing three straight games.

Shedeur thrived under center for the Buffs this year, completing 70.1 percent of his throws for 1,630 yards and 14 touchdowns, compared to just three interceptions. He is ranked as the No. 2 quarterback in the 2025 draft class on Bleacher Report’s latest big board from the NFL Scouting Department.

However, it’s hard to imagine the Dolphins drafting a quarterback to replace Tagovailoa. He signed a massive four-year extension worth $212.4 million prior to the season, the richest deal in franchise history.

He could also return before the end of the regular season, as ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that he is “symptom-free” as he recovers from the concussion and could return as soon as Week 8.

The Buffaloes signal caller will likely be a target for several teams in need of quarterback help in the 2025 draft, although Miami may not be one of them.
