“Real Sad”: A disheartened Shedeur Sanders is deeply affected by Omarion Miller’s tragic injury at the end of the season

Not only did the Colorado Buffs suffer a heartbreaking loss to the Wildcats last week, but they also lost a season-long loss of one of their key players to injury. Buffs wide receiver Omarion Miller suffered a season-ending left ankle leg injury. The situation is very serious and he has to undergo surgery. However, his exit from the game is not well received by his teammate and Buffs star QB Shedeur Sanders. Let’s see what he has to say about him.

Buffs star quarterback Shedeur Sanders feels the same way as he shared his feelings about Miller’s departure on his YouTube channel 2Legendary today. With Shedeur Sanders said: “I was looking forward to playing with him this season and I don’t know if he’s coming back or not; I’m not sure. But he’s definitely a high-impact guy, you know, who would find his way on the field. Whenever he got his chance, he always took it, and that’s the really sad thing.” Well, Miller’s season-long exit is a huge setback for the team as Omarion was one of the team’s key players.

Shedeur Sanders has a point. Omarion Miller made a big impression before leaving the field. Miller filled in for the team after Travis Hunter and Jimmy Horn Jr. left the game due to injuries. In her absence, Omarion successfully caught eight passes for 145 yards. Now you know what Shedeur is talking about.

It’s difficult when you lose all four of your exceptional wide receivers to injury during a game and there’s no guarantee of their return. The team suffered a setback during the game when their versatile player Travis Hunter injured his shoulder. Additionally, three other receivers were injured: Jimmy Horn Jr. with an ankle injury, Terrell Timmons Jr. and Omarion Miller. Their absence was clearly noticeable throughout the game, particularly in the disappointing performance of the Buffs’ offensive line.

Their star quarterback Shedeur was sacked six times in the entire game. Even Shedeur Sanders himself acknowledges the impact of their exit on the Buffs’ overall gameplay on his podcast today, saying: “These are the guys that we, you know, really worked with throughout the summer, really got some time and really got everything going. Once everyone was inside, you could see that we could drive across the field as a machine.“Well, there’s a chance Travis and Jimmy could return for the Buffs game against Arizona next week. Let’s see if they can turn the tables on the team.
