It would be a father-son tandem to make even the James family jealous. Michael Irvin joined “The Herd” on Tuesday and fanned the flames of a Deion Sanders-Shedeur Sanders head coach-quarterback tag team in Dallas. “You do believe — and I do, too — that if Shedeur [Sanders] went to the Cowboys, Deion would accept the job?” Cowherd asked his guest.
“I believe 100 percent,” responded Irvin , a former Cowboys wide receiver turned commentator. “And I can tell you, good sources have told me that. Great sources have told me that! That’s all I can say about that without violating anything else.
” It wouldn’t take a detective to deduce those “great sources.” Earlier Tuesday, Irvin posted a trio of photos on X with the caption, “I spent Friday night with Jerry Jones. I spent Saturday with Deion Sanders.
I spent Sunday with the lord PRAYING for ???? ????? (GUEST WHAT) Now after what the Dallas Cowboys look like on Monday Night Football. I must work harder!!!!!” It certainly has its appeal on paper. “Prime Time” takes his talents behind the bench and his sensational son to play for the NFL’s preeminent franchise.
After all, it’s not like Mike McCarthy has done much to convince Jones that his contract should be extended once the clock runs out on this embarrassment of a season. Then again, and their 3-7 record notwithstanding, the lowly Cowboys are still on the books to pay quarterback Dak Prescott an average of $60 million through 2028 and Sanders likely won’t be available by the time Dallas picks in the 2025 NFL Draft. In their second season together in Colorado, the Sanders duo has led the Buffaloes to a record of 8-2.
That’s good for first place in the Big 12 and, sans a meltdown of epic proportions, a potential bid to the new College Football Playoff..
