Colorado football coach, Deion Sanders, is in his home in Texas dealing with an “unrecognized health problem”, ESPN reported on Tuesday.
According to USA Today, Sanders, 57, was far from the campus while the school’s annual summer football camps began last week.
The eldest son of the temple of renown of professional football, Deion Sanders Jr, said that his father “felt good” in a live flow on Youtube Sunday, but there is no calendar for his return.
“He will tell you all sooner what he is going through, what he experienced,” said Deion Jr., according to USA Today. “When will we return to Boulder?” I don’t know. I’m waiting for my father to leave. When he leaves, then I go. Until then, I’m going to sit here with him.
The Colorado opens the season at home against Georgia Tech on August 29.
The Buffaloes finished 9-4 (7-2 Big 12) in the second season of Sanders in 2024, but lost two of their most prominent players-the winner of the Heisman Travis Hunter trophy and the quarter-arre (and the coach’s son) Sheder Sanders-at the NFL 2025 draft.
Deion Sanders has dealt with health problems in a recent past. He had two toes amputated in 2022 due to blood clots and also missed the day of the PAC-12 media in 2023 due to blood clots in the legs.
Sanders was to speak last weekend at a medical conference in Florida but was to cancel.
“Due to an inevitable last -minute planning change, our foreign speaker initially planned, the coach of Deion Sanders, is unable to attend. We are grateful for his support and impatiently await the future opportunities to welcome him”, the Foundation for Research on Sréalibre Diseases published on X.
