Deion Sanders, Taylor makes clear, is not a players' coach, but an old-school disciplinarian. Once, he temporarily kicked his own son, Shilo, a safety (another of Sanders's children, Shedeur, is the star quarterback), off the team for showing up to a meeting insufficiently early. - Nov 11, 2023
If you are still in doubt about Deion "Coach Prime" being good enough to coach today's Dallas Cowboys, read this article. You won't be disappointed. It's a long and lengthy article, but very informative and well written.
