Deion Sanders Changes Stance On Shilo Sanders After Colorado-Arizona

Deion Sanders was in a noticeably better mood after Colorado defeated Arizona 34-7 than he was last Saturday when Kansas State got the better of his Buffaloes.

Kansas State running back DJ Giddens made a highlight reel on Coach Prime's son, Shilo Sanders, in the Wildcats' 31-28 victory in Boulder, Colorado. Giddens ran for 182 yards in the win, while Shilo missed several important tackles in the loss.

As previously discussed on AS, Deion called out Shilo after the loss to Kansas State.

“I thought (Shilo) played horrible,” Sanders said. “I thought he was rusty. I thought he didn't have his footing. I thought he wasn’t coming up trying to make the play but open field, one-on-one tackle, with that kind of back, that ain't an easy task. But, he's gonna do better. I know what he has in him.”

Shilo performed much better against Arizona. He finished with four total tackles. More importantly, the senior safety didn't give up big plays and helped the unit that kept Arizona's offense to 245 yards in the Big 12 contest.

Deion praised Shilo for his turnaround on Saturday via an Instagram post.

"WOW," Deion wrote. "what a difference a week makes! 1 minute you’re the topic of ridicule because it’s your 1st time in your career that u showed vulnerability in your game but a week later you’re back to the PHYSICAL AGGRESSIVE DAWG that we all know.

"God is so good but yet so revealing to us all. Now u know who’s who son. Proceed with caution because everybody won’t love u when u don’t give them what they require for their love. But guess what son. I LOVE U TO LIFE & it ain’t based on performance."

Shilo is tied for the fourth-most total tackles on the Colorado defense with 21 on the season.

Shilo will have another opportunity to show NFL scouts his skills when 5-2 Colorado plays 5-2 Cincinnati on Oct. 26.
