Everyone's Saying the Same Thing About Shedeur Sanders After Colorado-Nebraska Game
By Matt Wadleigh,

The Colorado Buffaloes barely escaped North Dakota State in Week 1. In Week 2, they could not handle Dylan Raiola and the Nebraska Cornhuskers as Matt Rhule's team got the 28-10 win in Lincoln.
It was another disappointing performance by Colorado, and they went scoreless in the first half before outscoring Nebraska 10-0 in the final two quarters.
"Shedeur Sanders walks off the field early and leaves his team to finish the game. Unbelievable. Real leadership," a fan wrote.
"Shedeur Sanders leaving the field with 2 mins left in ballgame is a BAD look for his character. Lack of leadership qualities being displayed. I know Shedeur had a tough night with their horrible OL, but be a better leader than that! Be the bigger man here! Show some leadership," said another.
Of course, Nebraska fans weren't happy with the turn of events.
"The fact Shedeur Sanders leaves the field before the game ends and can’t even shake hands says a lot about the culture of your program and your character. Not very classy."
"If Shedeur Sanders wasn’t hurt, leaving the game early and abandoning his team has got to be one of the worst teammate moves possible, especially from a leader."
It was a very popular opinion, and the comments under the video sure were not in favor of Shedeur leaving before the game ended. If Shedeur did leave early for no reason, it is certainly something that will be discussed in great detail going forward.
Right before his exit, Shedeur took a huge hit with the game out of reach.
The Colorado quarterback was sacked six times in the game against Nebraska, and that hit certainly looked painful.
While it is unclear if he exited early to get examined by trainers, that certainly is a possibility.
Nonetheless, the Buffs did not play well in Week 2. Moreover, if Shedeur Sanders did not leave early to get examined by trainers, it would be a horrible look for an NFL Draft prospect.
