From Canton, Texas, Shedeur Sanders is Jackson State University’s freshman quarterback and Deion Sanders, an NFL Hall of Famer, is the SWAC school’s second-season coach after a mini season last spring.
The 6-foot-2 Shedeur completed 30 of 40 passes for 362 yards and three touchdowns in Jackson State’s 38-16 win last Saturday over Tennessee State University.
On the season, Sanders is 48 for 64 in the air for 583 yards for the 2-0 squad. Jackson State defeated Florida A&M University 7-6 in the opener.
