Shedeur Sanders takes on Manning Passing Academy
Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders will be a counselor at the 2023 Manning Passing Academy later this week.
Another honor for the 21-year-old Jackson State transfer, who accepted the Deacon Jones Award (HBCU Heisman) at a ceremony two weeks ago. Sanders threw for 3,732 yards, 46 total touchdowns, and six INTs last season. A total of five games with 300+ yards over the course of his sophomore season.
The Manning Passing Academy was brought to life in 1996 and is one of the most successful quarterback camps in the country. An annual effort led by Archie Manning and carried out by his sons Cooper, Peyton, and Eli. What makes this year special for the Manning family is having Archie's grandson, Arch, as a counselor. The nation's top recruit committed to Texas last year.
