IN PICS: $6.2M NIL-valued Shedeur Sanders hosts “legendary” lunch for aspiring student-athletes at Aurora high school
Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders has slowly become an inspiration, and he is using his skills even off the field. On Monday, he hosted a lunch for top student-athletes at Aurora Central High School, recognizing their dedication to academics and sports.
Sanders teamed up with CU Football to treat students who have exceptional attendance within their programs. As a result of his heartwarming gesture, the school’s official page uploaded a thank-you post for him.
"Huge shoutout to @shedeursanders and @cubuffsfootball for providing lunch for a select group of Aurora Central student-athletes. This group of athletes had the highest school attendance rates within their athletic programs and to acknowledge their work they got to spend their advisory period chopping it up with one of the nations best!" wrote AC Trojans.
Shedeur, who has an On3 NIL valuation of $6.2 million, reshared it on his story, captioning it:
"Legendary.”
This isn’t the first time Sanders has made time for young athletes. He’s known for his commitment to inspiring the next generation. Last month, he visited Fairview High School in Boulder, Colorado, where he spoke with the school’s football team.
During that visit, Sanders answered questions and offered words of wisdom, telling the players, “You’ve got a big game this week. Stay focused.” His message resonated with the students, inspiring them to give their best.
Shedeur Sanders Allegedly Celebrates Raiders Loss Yet Again
Shedeur Sanders has once again stirred social media by posting a “Thank you, God” message immediately after the Las Vegas Raiders lost again. This post, shared after the Raiders' 41-24 defeat to the Bengals, was an addition to the series of similar tweets Sanders has posted following every Raiders loss this season.
While some fans view it as mere coincidence or humor, others speculate about a deeper connection between Sanders and the Raiders. A recent post from MLFootball via X captured his tweets in a frame.
Interestingly, this ongoing trend of posts has intensified rumors linking Sanders to the Raiders, especially with the influence of Tom Brady, a recent minority owner of the team. Given Brady’s relationship with the Sanders family, some insiders believe he may push for the young QB to join the Raiders, potentially aligning with Deion Sanders' desire to select where his son begins his NFL journey.
With the continued cryptic tweets and growing chatter around the Raiders, fans are left wondering if Shedeur Sanders is being playful on social media or if there is a real possibility of him landing in Las Vegas.
