"Jimmy literally looks like he’s floating": Coach Prime's son Deion Sanders Jr. raves about "insane" ability of Colorado star
Deion Sanders Jr. was mighty impressed with the raw pace of Colorado's 22-year-old wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr., who's been filling out for Travis Hunter, owing to his injury concerns. While Hunter played against the Cincinnati Bears in Colorado's 34-23 victory in Week 9, Coach Prime ensured that Jimmy got some playtime.
Horn Jr. recorded 78 yards on five receptions, but what impressed Sanders Jr. a.k.a. Bucky was his sprint, as he beat Cincinnati athletes with ease. Jimmy Horn's 40-time is 4.34 seconds. Bucky took to X to hype up the Florida native, saying:
"Jimmy literally looks like he’s floating when he’s running… bro’s acceleration is insane."
Jimmy was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct for showing the peace sign to a Cincinnati defender as he ran toward the endzone. A flag was raised, and Horn Jr.'s touchdown didn't result in points.
