How many of Deion Sanders' sons play football? All you need to know 

In Colorado's upset win over TCU in its season opener, Deion Sanders' son Shedeur had a fantastic game. He recorded 510 passing yards — the most ever tallied by a quarterback in Buffaloes history.

That sprung the question: How many of Deion Sanders' sons play football?

He has four football players in his family, if we're counting his adopted son JaQuan Sheals. Here's a quick look at the collegiate football careers of these young men.

Deion Sanders Jr.

Deion Jr. played for the SMU Mustangs as a wide receiver, recording 233 yards and 30 receptions. He played for two seasons, then quit football to work in fashion, launching his own streetwear clothing brand in 2016.

Shilo Sanders

Shilo initially got a scholarship to Florida State — where his dad was an All-American — before taking his talents to the University of South Carolina. He played there for two seasons, then transferred to Jackson State where his father coached. Now, he is once again playing under his dad at Colorado, making his debut recently against the TCU Horned Frogs.

Shedeur Sanders

Arguably the best football player out of all the siblings, Shedeur is a highly touted QB for the Buffaloes. He had an amazing debut against the Horned Frogs on the road with 510 yards and four touchdowns. But before playing for Colorado, he also spent time in Jackson State.

Jaquan Sheals

Sheals was adopted into the Sanders household, but he is, without a doubt, a part of the family. Sheals played RB at Wilkes University, but he's been out of the limelight for several years now.

He reportedly owns and runs a gym called Impeccable Fitness, which has a YouTube channel where Sheals shares workout tips.

For now, it remains to be seen whether Shilo and Shedeur (the two currently active Sanders siblings in CFB) will be able to help take the Buffaloes to heights they haven't seen in years.
