It’s a heartbreaking story for Colorado football fans. On Tuesday, it was announced that quarterback Shedeur Sanders, the son of NFL great Deion Sanders, suffered a back fracture and will miss the season finale against Utah.
The Buffaloes had been hoping to finish the season on a high note with a win against the Utes, but now they will have to do it without their star quarterback. Sanders had been playing well this season, throwing for 1,648 yards and 11 touchdowns while leading the Buffaloes to a 4-1 record.
The injury is a huge blow to the Buffaloes, who had been hoping to make some noise in the Pac-12 this season. It’s unclear how long Sanders will be out, but it’s likely that he won’t be able to return until next season.
This is a tough situation for Sanders and the Buffaloes, but it’s also a reminder of how fragile the game of football can be. Injuries can happen at any time, and it’s important for players to take care of their bodies and be aware of the risks associated with playing the game.
For now, the Buffaloes will have to move on without Sanders and hope that they can still get the win against Utah. It won’t be easy, but they’ll have to find a way to make up for his absence and finish the season strong.
