Colorado’s Deion Sanders to fine players for violation of team rules

Like most football coaches, Colorado’s Deion Sanders has a set of rules and expectations for his players. This year, Sanders will make his players pay – literally – for certain violations. On Friday at the first team meeting with the 2026 Buffaloes, Sanders had several coaches and team leaders speak to the team and go over many of the expectations. He also put forth some expectations for conduct and a list of fines for violations, per a video on Well Off Media. There will be fines for being late to practice ($500) or being a no-show for practice ($2,500); being late to a meeting or film session ($400) or being a no-show for a meeting or film session ($2,000); being late to a strength and conditioning workout ($1,000) or being a no-show to one of those workouts ($1,500); and for being late to treatment ($1,000) or a no-show for treatment ($1,500). There will also be a fine for violation of team rules on a scale of $1,000 to $2,500, based on severity of the violation. And, for public or social media misconduct, there is a fine of $2,000 to $5,000, again based on severity. In addition, there are fines for damaging university or team property ($3,000 plus the repair cost); losing team technology or equipment ($1,000 plus cost of replacement); and for misuse or destruction of athletic training equipment ($500 to $2,000).
