One of the greatest cornerbacks in NFL history, Deion Sanders, has been battling health issues for quite a while now and the problems aren’t going away anytime soon. A few months back, the head coach of the Colorado football program had his big toe and second toe amputated because of blood clots that were blocking his blood flow.
Now, it appears that Coach Prime will have to amputate his entire leg if he goes ahead with another procedure to remove the blood clots. A YouTube channel by the name of Thee Pregame Show broke the news. The video showed Deion Sanders in conversation with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Kenneth Hunt and vascular surgeons Dr. Donald Jacobs and Dr. Max Wohlauer of the University of Colorado Boulder.
Dr. Wohlauer revealed that the circulation of Sander’s ankle was just 66% of the blood pressure. Dr. Jacobs added, “You just have to understand what the risks are. Things can cascade.” The former Dallas Cowboys star smiled nervously and replied, “Well, I know what risks are. I only have eight toes. So, I’m pretty sure I understand.” The 2x Super Bowl champion is yet to make a decision regarding the procedure which holds the ability to completely change his future.

Since then, there have been a lot of changes and Coach Prime has been in the headlines day in and day out. The 55-year-old former NFL superstar said that he inherited a “mess” and made it his mission to clean out all the “junk” and “foolishness” within the locker room.
Currently, only about ten scholarship students are returning from last year’s team of 85 athletes, as reported by USA Today. Coach Prime has been bringing in a lot of players from other colleges and is expected to turn this chaos into a well-oiled machine for UC’s season opener against TCU on September 2, 2023.
However, with the medical threat of losing a leg hanging over his head, Deion Sanders has a lot to ascertain about his future and the future of his team. UC’s medical team has been with Sanders’ every step of the way and is explaining his situation and trying to find out a solution that includes him walking on both feet.
