Colorado safety Shilo Sanders, the son of head coach Deion Sanders, is facing questions about his NIL income after declaring bankruptcy in the wake of losing an $11.89 million assault lawsuit, according to Westword and Sports Illustrated.
A state court reportedly found in 2022 that Sanders had committed assault and battery against John Darjean, a security guard at Triple A Academy, the high school branch of the since-shuttered Focus Academies charter school. The incident in question reportedly occurred in 2015, when Shilo was a high schooler and Deion was the school's CEO.
Court documents reportedly allege that Darjean escorted Shilo to in-school suspension for violating the school's no-phone policy, at which point Shilo called his mother, Pilar Sanders.
