Deion Sanders requires additional surgeries on foot and leg to address blood clots

The NFL Hall of Famer said the surgeries mean he is unable to attend the Pac-12 media day in Las Vegas on Friday. Deion Sanders is undergoing more surgeries to treat blood clots in his legs.

The Colorado Buffaloes head coach, 55, shared on Instagram that he is having “a couple of surgeries,” meaning he will miss the Pac-12 media day in Las Vegas.

“Following my Dr’s recommendations and will be going in for another procedure. Unfortunately this means I will not be in attendance of Pac-12 media day BUT this will ensure I am back on my feet for the start of fall camp. Good day and God bless #CoachPrime @cubuffsfootball,” the former NFL star wrote alongside a video posted on his Instagram the day before his surgery. 

“I want you to hear it from the horse,” Sanders began in the clip “I apologize that I’m not going to be at the Pac-12 media day, due to I have to have another surgery tomorrow, couple of surgeries pretty much, couple of surgeries. One in my leg as well to remove all the clots.”

He then got the camera to do a close-up of his left foot and said, “This is gonna be the last time my toes look like that, you see how they’re all bent over.” 

Make sure you keep Deion in your prayers during this tough time. Hoping he can coach this year.
