"Go Shilo Sanders": When Coach Prime's ex-wife Pilar Sanders hyped up her son after he copied Deion's celebration post-fumble recovery TD
Coach Prime's second ex-wife Pilar Sanders often shows her affection for her children on social media. She once hyped up her eldest son, Shilo, on Instagram after his fumble recovery touchdown in Colorado's win against Texas Tech on Nov. 10.
Shilo even copied his father Deion's celebration after running to score his touchdown, by performing his iconic dance. Pilar uploaded the video of Shilo's fourth-quarter touchdown and celebration in an Instagram post.
"GO @shilosanders 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉#proudmom #winners #big21 #bigshilo #headachegang™️ceo #shilosanders," Pilar captioned the IG post.
Shilo's fumble recovery touchdown helped Colorado to a 41-27 win over the Red Raiders. The defensive back also finished the game with six tackles, of which five were solo.
Shilo is the eldest child of Deion and Pilar Sanders, followed by Shedeur and Shelomi. While Shilo and Shedeur play college football, Shelomi plays college basketball for the Alabama A&M women's team.
Deion was married to Pilar from 1999 to 2015. Since their divorce, they have often avoided each other.
Deion also has two children, Deiondra and Deion Jr., with his first ex-wife Carolyne Chambers.
