Colorado head coach Deion Sanders recently confirmed that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones contacted the team amid a coaching vacancy.

As Travis Hunter, Shilo and Shedeur Sanders head to the NFL, rumors suggest coach Deion Sanders could follow. Over the weekend, rumors swirled that Deion Sanders was interested in the Las Vegas Raiders head coaching opening due to his family's relationship with Tom Brady.

Brady is a new minority owner of the Raiders and hopes to lead the team to a Super Bowl trophy, so having Prime on board could speed that up.

On the other hand, CBS Sports reports that Jerry Jones actually wants Coach Prime to look in his NFL team's direction.

On Monday Night Football, Prime confirmed the rumors and said the NFL team owner had arranged a coaching position for the Dallas Cowboys his way.

“Hearing Jerry Jones is really delightful and intriguing,” Sanders said. ESPN Monday evening. “I love Jerry and I believe in Jerry. After hanging up, processing and thinking about it, it's intriguing. But I love Boulder and everything about our team, coaches, student body and community.

As you can see, Sanders hasn't denied his interest in going elsewhere, and given that he loves coaching his sons, we could see him go.

Jerry and Deion's relationship spans decades, including winning the 1996 Super Bowl championship together. However, the question remains: How will billionaire Jerry pull off this finesse?

It could be as simple as sending Dak Prescott with draft picks for the No. 1 selection in the NFL Draft to use for Shedeur Sanders. With a clear path to get there, it seems likely that the Sanders father-son duo could join the NFL together. However, it is important to remember that the Cowboys and Jerry have have never been able to get out of their own way.

Don't get your hopes up, Cowboys fans. You have enough disappointments this season to enjoy.
