Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders might seem like a flashy man all the time, but he also takes the time to have intense focus and preparation before every game, and he does not let anybody mess that up for him.
As he warmed up for the highly anticipated game against the UCF Knights, former NFL MVP Cam Newton approached him on the field.
Newton seemed eager to meet with the young quarterback, likely to share some words of wisdom or encouragement, but Shedeur Sanders wasn’t feeling it all.
After the two greeted each other and exchanged a few words, Shedeur Sanders simply walked away to continue his routine, which gave Newton a confused look on his face.
The two could be seen saying something to each other as they locked hands, but Sanders had other things on his mind.

Newton seemed to get the picture, so he proceeded to walk out of the end zone as cameras saw Sanders continuing his workout.
Deion Sanders has instilled a laser focus and disciplined playstyle in the Colorado Buffaloes, and Shedeur wouldn’t be the only one to give Newton the same response.
An interaction between Hunter and Newton also went viral as the Colorado receiver appeared to blow him off.
However, that was not the case, as it was later revealed that Hunter was merely joking with Newton.
