Despite repeating on multiple occasions that he plans to remain the football coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, Deion Sanders's name was once again floated as a potential head coaching candidate for one of his former teams, the Dallas Cowboys. Sanders did have a conversation with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones about the opening, but ultimately did not emerge as a serious contender for the position before Dallas hired Brian Schottenheimer.
Sanders reiterated Friday during Super Bowl week that he does not want to coach in the NFL—unless he can coach his sons, Shedeur and Shilo.
