Fans warn Shedeur Sanders to beware of Kardashian curse after Colorado star spotted with Kendall Jenner

Shedeur Sanders has been generating a lot of buzz lately and is said to be a highly anticipated prospect in next year’s NFL Draft.

But being the Colorado Buffaloes quarterback and son of former NFL player and current Colorado coach Deion Sanders also brings with it a potentially unwanted spotlight. Shedeur’s clip is going viral after the 22-year-old was spotted embracing Kendall Jenner.

The content creator posted the clip and wrote, “Shedeur Sanders met up with Kendall Jenner who was recently in Boulder.” Jenner was in Boulder — home to the University of Colorado — because she was traveling to different cities to promote her alcohol brand 818 Tequila.

Since the video only shows Jenner’s upper body and Shedeur’s back, who happened to be wearing a hoodie, it’s unclear if she was serving drinks during their meeting, but it appeared he was waiting in line to greet her. After a few people in front of him moved out of the way, he went over to hug Jenner and said, “How are you?” before the video ended.

Many fans warned Shedeur against getting close to Jenner.

One person said, “Nothing good happens when a BLACK athlete dates a Kardashian/Jenner,” and another said, “Oh no. I’m scolding, I’m scolding!”

A third person wrote: “Stay away from our quarterback. Kardashian/Jenner can’t remember the last athlete who had a successful relationship with one of these girls.”

Of all five Kardashian-Jenner girls, Khloé and Kendall have mostly dated NBA players. Khloé, who is best known for her marriage and divorce from NBA player Lamar Odom, dated Minnesota Timberwolves player Rashad McCants from 2008 to 2009. He was then traded to the Sacramento Kings, where he played only one season and was never drafted by another team.

In a 2017 interview with the Charlotte Observer, McCants said his relationship with Khloé made people question his commitment to the NBA. “Without that in-game situation, I’m a $60 million, $70 million player,” McCants said. “Easily.”

Later in 2009, after just one month of dating, Khloe married Los Angeles Lakers star Odom. The two documented their wedding on the reality show Khloe and Lamar, but their relationship began to crumble, and Odom’s secret struggles with substance abuse began to come to light in 2013. Later that year, Odom was arrested for driving under the influence. From 2011 to 2014, he played for the Lakers, Dallas Mavericks, and then the LA Clippers before becoming a free agent. He then went to the EuroLeague, where he played in two games before injuring his back.

Then in April 2014 he signed a contract with the Knicks, but in July of that same year the team waived him.

Then there’s Khloé’s infamous relationship with Cleveland Cavaliers player Tristan Thompson. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star had two children with Thompson, but their relationship was severely strained by Thompson’s repeated infidelities. Nevertheless, Thompson’s 13-year NBA career didn’t end there, and he’s currently on the Cleveland Cavaliers roster.

As for her younger sister Kendall, she briefly dated Brooklyn Nets player Ben Simmons from 2018 to 2019. Simmons was named Rookie of the Year in 2018 and an All-Star in 2019. However, the following seasons became difficult for Simmons after his Philadelphia 76ers lost to the Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference semifinals in an extremely close seven-game series in 2021. Apparently feeling like he was being blamed for the Game 7 loss, Simmons never played for the 76ers again before being traded to Brooklyn. He ultimately missed the entire 2021-2022 season, even after coming to Brooklyn midway through the season. Since then, battling knee and back injuries — which resulted in both knee and back surgeries — Simmons has only played in 57 games over the past three seasons.

Following this relationship, Kendall dated Phoenix Suns player Devin Booker for two years from 2020 to 2022.

It is currently unclear what her relationship status is, but it looks like she might be rekindling her relationship with Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny in 2023. They were spotted together in Paris, holding hands in June of this year.

Shedeur’s relationship status is uncertain, as it appears he and actress Storm Reid have quietly split after making their red carpet debut last year.
