While Shedeur Sanders adjusts to life in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns , his younger sister Shelomi is making waves in her own right but in a completely different arena. Known for being the daughter of legendary athlete Deion Sanders , Shelomi is no longer content with being in the shadow of her father and brothers. Instead, she's using media, sports, and personal storytelling to build her own legacy.
Shelomi Sanders is building a legacy that’s entirely her ownAfter a long hiatus, Shelomi made a quiet but powerful return to YouTube with a heartfelt “Mother’s Day Vlog,” giving fans a glimpse into her personal life. It wasn’t just a family tribute it marked the launch of a new chapter.
She’s now hosting her own podcast, giving her a space to speak freely about everything from her upbringing to the challenges she’s faced as a young woman in sports and media. Unlike the flashy, fast-paced energy often seen from the Sanders men, Shelomi’s approach is calm, relatable, and refreshingly honest.
Shelomi Sanders is stepping into her own spotlight, not just as the daughter of Deion Sanders but as a strong voice for those living with Type 1 diabetes . In an interview with Beyond Type 1, she opened up about the ongoing challenges, saying, “Still learning… It never stops.”
But Shelomi’s presence isn’t just digital. She also made a pivotal move in her basketball career, transferring from the University of Colorado to Alabama A&M.
During her early days at Jackson State, where her father Deion Sanders coached and her brothers played, Shelomi experienced the unique dynamic of being both the youngest and the only daughter on campus.
Recalling those times with a laugh, she once joked, “I’m a freshman and a female, so they weren’t gonna leave me in Jackson with the whole family coming over.”
Her return to an HBCU environment speaks volumes about her desire for community and fit values that often get overlooked in the spotlight of big-name programs. She previously played at Jackson State, and this return feels like a homecoming, professionally and personally.
Shelomi is also making significant strides in the NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) landscape. She recently inked a deal with Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty, a major endorsement that showcases not only her marketability but also her confidence in stepping into new territory beyond basketball.
While Shelomi’s story is one of growth and reclamation, her brother Shedeur’s path is filled with pressure. Despite being a top college quarterback, he fell to the fifth round of the NFL Draft, a disappointment that raised eyebrows and stirred media debate.
However, Shedeur has already started silencing doubters by putting up standout performances at the Browns' rookie camp.

Together, Shelomi and Shedeur represent two different sides of the Sanders legacy: one navigating the pressure of NFL expectations, the other forging a new identity beyond the family name. In doing so, both are proving they’re more than just Deion Sanders’ kids they’re rising stars in their own right.
