Is Shedeur Sanders really that good that he can end the Dallas Cowboys‘ suffering? Jerry Jones’ team is having a nightmare season, hitting a new low week after week, leaving fans desperate for answers.
After a tough 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, the Cowboys are on a three-game losing streak. Injuries and offensive struggles continue to plague Dallas, with Dak Prescott also suffering a hamstring issue late in the Atlanta game.
Amidst this turmoil, one passionate Cowboys fan took to X to plead with Colorado head coach Deion “Prime” Sanders for a solution. Responding to a tweet from Deion Sanders Jr., the fan poured out his desire for a Sanders family-led rebuild, suggesting the Cowboys bring in Shedeur Sanders, Travis Hunter, and even Shilo Sanders to “end the suffering” in Dallas.
“We’ve suffered too much,” the fan wrote, urging Coach Prime to work his magic in Big D.
I wish I was GM of Cowboys. For many reasons, but I’d get Shedeur Sanders, Travis Hunter, and eventually Shilo. Would cut a deal with all and your Dad. Then we’d need a lot more changes. Tanking hard so at least some is possible. @DeionSanders congrats on the great job you’ve…

Now at 3-5, the Cowboys have fallen further behind the Washington Commanders (7-2), who lead the NFC East. Once a scoring machine, the Cowboys’ offense has struggled to replicate its 2023 form, when it led the league with 30.1 points per game.
For fans, the thought of Shedeur Sanders under center represents a glimmer of hope to revive the franchise’s fortunes.
Deion Sanders Has Preferences for Shedeur Sanders in 2025 NFL Draft
The 57-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer has big plans for his son, Shedeur, as he eyes the 2025 NFL Draft. The Colorado coach isn’t holding back on where he’d like to see his quarterback son land — hinting at a potential fit with the Miami Dolphins.
Deion Sanders appeared on Nightcap with Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson in October. He discussed the Dolphins’ quarterback situation and Tua Tagovailoa’s injury history.
“What do you do business-wise if you’re the Dolphins?” Sanders asked, suggesting the team consider drafting a new quarterback. The answer was already clear on his mind — Shedeur.
Shedeur Sanders, Miami Dolphin? 👀👀

This isn’t the first time Coach Prime has voiced his vision for Shedeur’s NFL journey. Earlier in the year, he drove fans crazy that Shedeur might pull an “Eli Manning” if needed, choosing his ideal team.
“Now, this is subjective because I know where I kind of want them to go. And let’s not forget (Deion’s other son Shilo), but I know where I want them to go. So there’s certain cities that it ain’t gonna happen. It’s gonna be an Eli.”
“There’s certain cities that ain’t gonna happen… It’s gonna be an Eli.”
