Colorado Buffaloes football coach Deion Sanders may not take the New York Giants' leaks on Shedeur Sanders lying down.

Deion Sanders fiercely defends son and new Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur against critics during the pre-draft process.

Shedeur, who was a projected borderline first-round pick, slipped all the way to the fifth round before the Cleveland Browns drafted him at No. 144 overall. The elder Sanders specifically refuted the notion that Shedeur was "unprepared" for pre-draft interviews, and that he wore headphones during one meeting with a team.
