Darrell Colbert Jr. has had an extended up-close view of Shedeur Sanders’ development like few have thanks to their offseason work together.
But Sanders was always there. Since 2019, when Colbert launched Select QB, not an offseason has gone by without the two working together. Colbert has had a hand in helping Shedeur make the transition from high school to Jackson State, then from the FCS ranks to the Power 5 at Colorado.
The way he prepares each week also traces back to his HBCU days. “Since his freshman year, he’s done a great job of understanding and preparing for what the coaches are trying to do, why they’re calling what they’re calling and trying to understand what defenses are doing,” Colbert said. “He wants to know the ins and outs of every play. ‘If they do this, what’s our answer?’”
Colbert and Sanders struck up an initial friendship when the Colorado quarterback was still in middle school. Colbert, who has been on the sideline for each of Colorado’s first three games, can see the improvement. Shedeur learns quickly, he said, and the tweaks have become second nature. “He’s not even thinking about those things anymore,” Colbert said. “Those have improved a lot since his freshman and sophomore years.”
