Colorado assistant Jason Phillips retires before fall camp begins

Deion Sanders confirmed that Jason Phillips has retired, clarifying the coaching changes for Colorado football as fall camp opens. Phillips, a receivers coach for over 25 years, was not listed on the staff directory and did not appear at the team's first meeting. Sanders praised Phillips for his contributions and close friendship, noting the development of NFL-bound players under his guidance. With Phillips' retirement, Brennan Marion's new Go-Go offense will expect more from receivers, while Rashad Davis is prepared to take over the receiver room. Colorado aims to adapt amid these changes ahead of their season opener against Georgia Tech on September 3.
