Shilo Sanders led Colorado in tackles in 2023 and was third on the team in 2024 despite missing three games with a broken forearm. He could land on the practice squad of another team or potentially head to the Canadian Football League. The Toronto Argonauts have exclusive negotiating rights with Sanders.

Colorado coach Deion Sanders said plans are in place for son Shilo if he doesn't make it in the NFL after being released by Tampa Bay.

Sanders appeared in all three of Tampa Bay’s preseason games, recording four solo tackles and a quarterback hit against the Tennessee Titans in the opener. He was competing for the final safety spot behind Antoine Winfield Jr., Tykee Smith and Christian Izien, with Kaevon Merriweather and Rashad Wisdom also in the mix.
