As Colorado’s Highly-Rated Transfer announces his commitment live on stream, he goes full Ja Morant and is caught with a gun and drugs. tt

Chidozie Nwankwo knows how important it is to be fully aware of his surroundings on the field, but perhaps not so much off of it.

The Houston Cougars defensive lineman has committed to playing for Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes and personally called Coach Prime to let him know. He also recorded the call on IG Live and had a full Ja Morant moment as a gun, as well as weed paraphernalia, were spotted on a table in the background.

Of course, we can’t be sure that was a gun. It could have been a lighter, as might have been the case with Morant. If it was indeed a gun, who’s to say it isn’t registered? We also don’t know if the player was filming from his own place.

Sanders, who was heard clearly on the other end of the line, sounded overjoyed. But he’s probably not going to be happy about the stuff seen in the background. The DL has already gotten off on the wrong foot as he’s needlessly subjected himself to speculation.

As a player, though, Nwankwo represents a remarkable catch for the Buffs. He registered 95 tackles, 13 for loss, and five sacks in 41 games at Houston and should slot right into the starting lineup.
