Jackson State quarterback Shedeur Sanders, the son of Jackson State head coach and former NFL superstar Deion Sanders, is putting on a clinic Sunday.

The sophomore opened the Tigers’ game against Florida A&M with 16 consecutive completions, including a 29-yard touchdown pass to Rico Sanders, a transfer from South Carolina.

The younger Sanders was a revelation a year ago, passing for more than 3,200 yards and 30 touchdowns as a freshmen.

And if the start to his 2022 campaign is any indication, he’ll shatter those marks this year.

Jackson State leads A&M 21-0 late in the second quarter and Sanders is 18-of-20 for 170 yards and 3 touchdowns.
