Georgia Tech Football: Jackets offer son of Atlanta sports legend

Not many times do college football coaches get to recruit the sons of legendary athletes. But that is exactly what the Georgia Tech football coaching staff is able to do as they have entered the recruitment of 2021 quarterback Shedeur Sanders. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the son of college football, NFL, and Atlanta sports legend Deion Sanders.

Shedeur is a 6-foot-1, 180-pound quarterback out of Trinity Christian School in Cedar Hill, Texas. Of course, the Sanders family does have a ton of connections to Atlanta with Deion playing for both the Braves and Falcons during his professional baseball and football careers.
