Deion Sanders and Colorado's 2025 class took a hit on Sunday with wide receiver Winston Watkins Jr.'s decision to decommit. Watkins (No.
87 in the 2025 ESPN 300) was the first player to commit to Sanders, announcing his pledge to the program on Dec. 4, 2022 — the day Sanders was hired.
Watkins, the cousin of former Clemson and NFL wide receiver Sammy Watkins, spent his sophomore year and the beginning of his junior season at IMG Academy (Florida) before transferring to First Baptist Academy (Florida).
Through his five games this season, the 5-foot-10, 175-pound Watkins caught 38 passes for 804 yards and nine touchdowns for the Lions.
