Shedeur Sanders, the son of Prime Time, is gearing up for his moment in the spotlight as he prepares for his pro day ahead of the NFL draft. The pro day will serve as the final showcase for NFL hopefuls from the Colorado Buffaloes, offering them a chance to shine as they transition to the professional level. Unlike the scouting combine, pro days are more structured and controlled but still provide players with an opportunity to stand out in a smaller group.
In contrast to other conferences, the Big 12 opted to hold a collective pro day for all teams rather than individual sessions. This streamlined approach allows for logistical efficiency with all 16 teams participating in one location, a format that will continue in 2025. Shedeur Sanders is expected to be a standout performer among the numerous prospects who will be showcasing their skills.
Sanders’ pro day is scheduled for Thursday, March 20, as part of the Big 12’s pro days taking place from March 18 to 21. The quarterbacks, including Sanders, will join the defensive backs on March 20 following the running backs and tight ends. NFL Network will provide live coverage of the event from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. ET.
Sanders opted not to throw at the NFL combine, choosing instead to let his game tape do the talking. His pro day will offer a platform to address any lingering concerns about his arm strength while also highlighting his teammates’ talents. As one of the top quarterback prospects in the draft, Sanders is expected to be among the early selections on draft night.
Colorado will participate alongside other Big 12 schools such as Arizona, Baylor, UCF, and more, in the pro day festivities. Fans can catch Sanders’ pro day and other showcases on NFL Network from March 18-21.
