“My favorite child”: $45M worth Coach Prime pens heartfelt letter for eldest son Deion Sanders Jr. on his special day

Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders, who has a net worth of $45 million (per Celebritynetworth.com), is a massive supporter of his family and their respective sports careers. His sons, Shedeur and Shilo Sanders, will continue their careers away from Deion and Colorado in 2025.

Sometimes, it seems easy to overlook that Deion Sanders Jr. plays a significant role in his father's Boulder program. He creates social media content and produces in-depth videos that offer fans an inside look at one of college football's most intriguing programs.

Today (December 1) is Deion Sanders Jr.'s birthday, and to celebrate this, his father has celebrated his son in a post on Instagram.

" Happy Birthday to My Favorite Child! He’s the glue that holds everyone together. The 1st Camera man that has cussed the whole team out for Taking anything for granted and lackluster play. Love ya son!!! Be blessed on this wonderful day which the Lord has made. #Dad #FavoriteChild #1son Please Subscribe to his YouTube Channel for his birthday please Welloff Media!"

This is a tribute to a role that tends to go unappreciated in many teams but not in Colorado.

Deion Sanders Jr. has successfully embedded himself within the team, even taking on a coaching role to support Coach Prime.

His regular videos showcasing the daily activities of the Sanders family and the Colorado Buffaloes program have provided fans with unparalleled access to the team.

It is currently unknown if Deion Sanders Jr. will stay with the Buffaloes once his father has left the team, as he has been heavily linked with an NFL coaching role. If this does happen, college football may lose a great deal from behind the camera.

Deion Sanders Jr. praises the cameraman for the Michigan vs. Ohio State fight

As well as being praised by his father for his actions, Deion Sanders Jr. also gave praise to someone else for what they did yesterday.

A fight between the teams immediately after yesterday's game between the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan Wolverines broke out. The event was broadcast on television so that everyone could see it.

This included Deion Sanders Jr., who praised the camera crew for showing the fight for all.

"Shout out to the tv provider & the cameraman for showing the high wide angle so we can enjoy the full fight."

The fight is likely the main memory from this game, which the Michigan Wolverines won.

The Wolverines's 13-10 victory prevented the Buckeyes from making the Big Ten Championship game. Hence, the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes — like the Colorado Buffaloes — will not play next week.
