Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders has a back fracture, per information shared in Deion Sanders Jr.'s latest Well Off Media vlog covering Colorado's game against Utah. Shedeur and Deion Sanders Jr. were speaking about the injury as they were walking onto the field and Deion Sanders Jr. mentioned in a subtitle on the video that he had a back fracture.
“It's crazy [because] like I feel good bro but it's like when I start running for real it's like the idea …I feel good but like realistically bro it's like you can't bro I can't even go right now,” Shedeur said to Deion Sanders Jr. in the video.
Sanders Jr. then started to ponder on whether information was going to be divulged about the injury so fans could know that he wasn't cleared to play because of his injury. Shedeur didn't respond in the clip, so Sander Jr. put via text in the video that he had a back fracture.
