Deion Sanders' son, Shilo, adds another feather to his cap by portraying his father in the television series "BMF."
The Sanders family is a veritable dynasty, both on and off the football field. Deion Sanders, the legendary Hall of Famer and current head coach of the University of Colorado Buffaloes, has passed on his athletic talents to his sons, including Shilo, who is making a name for himself in a different arena: acting.
Shilo Sanders will showcase his acting chops in the season finale of the Starz series "BMF," which follows the rise and fall of brothers Demetrius "Big Meech" and Terry "Southwest T" Flenory, who established a notorious crime family in Detroit.
In a fitting twist, Shilo will portray his own father in the episode aptly titled "Prime Time," a nod to Deion's nickname and the nightclub he operated in Atlanta, where he crossed paths with Big Meech.
"Guess who's playing a young PRIME!" Deion Sanders proudly announced on Instagram, expressing immense pride in his son's accomplishments.
The Sanders family's off-field pursuits have been equally noteworthy. Shilo's brother, Shedeur, the star quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes, recently released a rap single titled "Perfect Timing."
While Shilo's acting debut has been met with anticipation, Shedeur's music has drawn mixed reactions. Some critics have labeled it as "trash," while others have questioned the timing of its release amidst Colorado's disappointing football season.
On the gridiron, Shilo has emerged as a force to be reckoned with. During the 2022 season, he recorded a career-high 67 tackles, forced four fumbles, and intercepted a pass, which he returned 80 yards for a touchdown.
However, the Buffaloes as a whole endured a tumultuous season, winning their first three games and earning a national ranking before losing eight of their final nine contests.
Despite the team's struggles, the Sanders family continues to exude positivity and resilience. Shilo's acting venture and Shedeur's musical pursuits serve as testaments to their multifaceted talents.
As the Sanders family navigates the ups and downs of both sports and entertainment, one thing remains constant: their unwavering support for one another.
