NCAAF: Deion Sanders not fully recovered from health scare

Colorado coach Deion Sanders is still “going through” his latest undisclosed health problem and is not yet back with his program.

Sanders, entering Year 3 of his tenure at Colorado, has been at his Texas estate since at least June as he deals with his health. Deion Sanders Jr. has posted multiple videos online this summer that feature his father, including on Tuesday.

The latest video shows the elder Sanders stepping into an ice bath, walking, shooting hoops and attending a tennis lesson.

“You know I’m still going through something,” the coach said. “I ain’t all the way recovered.”

The regular season is drawing near. The Buffaloes open the season at home on Aug. 29 against Georgia Tech.

A member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the 57-year-old Sanders required multiple surgeries for persistent blood clots in recent years. He had two toes amputated in 2021 to address clotting issues, but it is unclear whether that is related to his current health status.

He attended Big 12 preseason media days two weeks ago and declined to give details about his condition, insisting he felt “good.”
