Shilo Sanders has dreams of acting or being a streamer, but those dreams may not bring him to Los Angeles. Colorado Buffaloes football coach Deion Sanders’ middle son revealed that he’s considering Atlanta and Miami as well, but for different purposes.
Shilo would go to Los Angeles or Atlanta, the latter city being the first Deion played in during his NFL career with the Falcons, for acting opportunities. He’d go to Miami to be closer to Shedeur, who likes to vacation in South Florida.
Either way, Shilo acknowledged his professional football dream is probably one that’s already crescendoed in the NFL preseason, playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before being released in August.
“I've been playing sports my whole life since I was four or five years old. So this is the first time I've actually had free time. Everyone knows when you're undrafted, it's not certain that you're gonna be on the team,” Shilo said on his YouTube channel.
“I've been thinking about, L.A., for the acting stuff and for the music stuff. I've been thinking about staying in Atlanta, again, for the acting stuff. I've been thinking about staying in Miami. Miami's pretty cool. It's similar to Tampa, but, it's different. There's still beaches and stuff. Like, my family would still want to come visit me. Miami's similar, and Shedeur likes going to Miami a lot to go on vacations.”
Shilo is sticking in Tampa until December, then launching his career move out in whichever direction he chooses.
A return to the Bucs isn’t happening, even if a large number of DBs go down in Tampa Bay’s room.
At 25, Shilo still has plenty of time to figure out whether he’ll ever be a pro athlete again.
