The Colorado Buffaloes have made a name for themselves with their flair and unconventional approach to college football. Under Deion Sanders, they continue to stand out, even in the smallest details—like rebranding what most programs simply call a pro day.
This time, the national spotlight shifts to their future NFL stars, with scouts from all 32 teams expected in attendance. Travis Hunter, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, and quarterback Shedeur Sanders will headline the event, aiming to solidify their draft stock.
This will mark the first time Shedeur Sanders takes part in any pre-draft workouts since wrapping up his college career. The quarterback opted out of throwing at the NFL Combine, choosing instead to let his game film do the talking. Though he was present at the event, he refrained from participating in any on-field drills.
His next chance to showcase his skills came at the Big 12's pro day—a scaled-down version of the NFL Combine for the conference—but once again, Sanders sat it out. Now, with all eyes on Colorado’s exclusive pro day, the spotlight is firmly on him as he prepares for the next step in his journey to the NFL.
They won't be alone, as 14 other draft-eligible Buffaloes, including wide receivers LaJohntay Wester and Jimmy Horn Jr., as well as safety Shilo Sanders, will also take the stage. With the draft fast approaching, this showcase serves as a crucial opportunity for Colorado's prospects to make a lasting impression.
But just when will all the action take place, and what phases will unfold throughout the event? GOAL brings you all the details to follow the 2025 Colorado Buffaloes pro day.
