Colorado coach Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders has named senior transfer Kaidon Salter his starting quarterback for Friday’s season opener against Georgia Tech at Folsom Field. Sanders said Salter’s dual-threat experience—he threw for 5,283 yards at Liberty—gives the Buffaloes their best chance to build on last year’s nine-win campaign, though heralded freshman Julian “JuJu” Lewis is expected to receive limited snaps. The decision comes as Sanders begins his third season in Boulder under a five-year, $54 million extension and after completing cancer treatment earlier this year. He has reshaped the roster and hinted at a more run-heavy offense that will deploy sophomore receiver Dre’lon Miller in the backfield. Off the field, Sanders told the Associated Press that every player whose team reaches the College Football Playoff should receive an NFL-style cash bonus, with a higher payout for the national champion. Former Alabama coach Nick Saban backed the idea, which surfaces as athletes are projected to collect about $1.9 billion this season through revenue sharing and name-image-likeness deals, according to Opendorse. Sanders’ family remains in the spotlight at the professional level. His son Shedeur Sanders made the Cleveland Browns’ 53-man roster as the third quarterback behind Joe Flacco and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel. Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said the club is “committed to his development,” although Shedeur is unlikely to see immediate playing time.
