Fans on social media weighed in with reactions.

"His NFL stock just plummeted. He won't go before round 3," another fan added.
Jerry Jones Gets Honest About Deion Sanders
Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders has indeed built a powerhouse at Colorado.
Buffaloes stars Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders are both considered to be among the favorites to win the Heisman Award. However, with both players expected to enter the draft this spring, some wonder if, Sanders could be another potential domino that could fall if the opportunity to join a bigger program (*cough* Florida State) presented itself.
But some feel that Coach Prime could have his sights set even higher and leave for the NFL. And with his son set to be one of the top picks and the Dallas Cowboys' struggles continuing, some think that it's possible that he could be the next man up for his former team. Earlier this week Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had high praise for the Colorado Coach.
"One of his greatest skills, that he really brings to college, is that he almost has no peer as far as being a recruiter. Kids want to come play for him. And he has a way of selling that," Jones said.
"That is one skill, that recruiting skill, that is not a huge prerequisite for NFL coaches. One of his greatest values is in that area of putting the team together and getting great talent to come play for him there at Colorado."
