The NFL has seen many star players and Deion Sanders is one of them. Born in August 1967, the Atlanta Falcons star impressed many with his talent in the league as a cornerback. Now, his son Shedeur Sanders has been creating waves with his performance in college football. However, there is one more Sanders in the NFL: Miles Sanders.
After leaving the NFL, Deion Sanders began coaching and is currently the coach for Colorado Buffaloes. Almost all the fans know that Buffaloes’ QB Shedeur Sanders is the son of Coach Prime. However, many people wonder if the Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders is related to them or not.
It’s worth noting that Shedeur was born in February 2002 in Texas to Deion Sanders and Pilar Sanders. Miles Sanders, on the other hand, was born to Miles and Brian Sanders in May 1997 in Pennsylvania. The 5-foot-11 RB attended Penn State University and entered the NFL in 2019. The Philadelphia Eagles selected him as their 53rd pick in the 2nd round of the NFL draft.
As for 21-year-old Shedeur, he plays for the Colorado Buffaloes and is not related to Miles. The only thing that the RB has in common with Shedeur Sanders and Deion Sanders is the surname. Apart from that, the trio share no personal relationship. However, all of them are great in terms of football and have been impressive in their respective careers.
How many children does Deion Sanders have?
Deion Sanders has five children in total but all of them don’t share the same mother. The 6-foot-1 tall 49ers star married his first wife Carolyn Chambers in 1989.

After Chambers, the former Cowboys star married Pilar Sanders in 1999. The duo had three kids together including Shilo, Shedeur, and Shelomi Sanders. Deion Sanders and Pilar Sanders then got into an ugly divorce battle and fought for their kids’ custody.
After Pilar, Coach Prime dated Tracey Edmonds for 11 years before breaking up this year. However, the ex-couple doesn’t have any children together.
The eldest daughter of Deion Sanders, Deiondra, began her career in the world of reality shows. Throughout the years, she has established her own identity away from sports. Deion Jr. played football in high school and college. However, he couldn’t make it to the NFL and began his clothing brand ‘Well Off’.
Shilo Sanders plays for the Buffaloes as a safety and has been impressive like his father. Shedeur Sanders is probably the most popular of all the children of the 2-time Super Bowl winner. The 215 lb QB will soon make his NFL debut and is expected to be a great prospect in the NFL draft. As for Shelomi, she is an exceptional basketball player and plays for the Buffaloes.
All the kids of Deion Sanders have proved to be successful in their respective fields. As for the Buffaloes HC, he has been focusing on leading his team to success in college football.
