NFL and MLB legend Deion Sanders has been struggling with his health in recent times. Having only recently undergone foot surgery, Sanders now finds himself on the operating table yet again. This time, though, it is due to a sudden blood clot in his groin. Former Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee recently talked about this grave situation and offered his prayers for Coach Prime’s speedy recovery, after Andrew PacMan provided him with latest details regrading Deion’s health.

The Super Bowl and World Series winner has not been at his best when it comes to his health. Sanders recently revealed that he had two blood clots in his body, both of which would require surgery. Needless to say, this sudden emergency surgery is raising concerns among his admirers.
PacMan Jones reveals what he told Sanders on a call
Pat McAfee and Adam “PacMan” Jones talked about Sanders’ surgery on the recent episode of the ‘Pat McAfee Show’. The duo discussed Sanders’ recent health issues, and how his absence would inadvertently affect the Colorado Buffaloes.
“Serious news, and we got it because we’re incredibly lucky to have Adam “Pacman” Jones with us every single week. There is news coming out of Colorado about Coach Prime, Deion Sanders and I want to make sure I get this right. A blood clot has been found in his groin and he has like emergency surgery happening tomorrow,” McAfee said.
PacMan seemed to be in agreement with McAfee’s words that the entire football community is backing Sanders to get better soon. Jones then said, “I totally agree man I had a chance to talk to him(Deion) this morning. I said, ‘Man, I hope they don’t have to cut off your d**k’. That’s what I told him. Yeah, I said, ‘Bro, it’ll be bad if they have to cut off your d**k, bro. Just cut the leg off”. As one can expect, McAfee couldn’t stop himself from chuckling after listening to what Adam admitted telling Deion.
Sanders’ health complications came to light when he was coaching at Jackson State. Back in 2021, he was forced to move around in a motorized wheelchair, due to problems arising from a foot surgery. Later, he had another operation wherein a few toes from his left foot were amputated.
Colorado could suffer if Deion Sanders stays away for too long
One of the biggest things that defines the Colorado Buffaloes’ recent past, is their massive drop in performance and reputation. In fact, the program has fallen to the depths of Pac-12, and hiring Sanders was an attempt at renewing and reinvigorating their flailing program. Given Sanders’ reputation, and his ability to make even the worst teams get on top of their rivals, the hopes are high for the Buffaloes.
However, Coach Prime’s health complications will no doubt throw a wrench in the works for the team. If Sanders is away from the program for far too long, the Buffaloes may not be able to script the comeback they were hoping to achieve this season. Will Sanders recover soon enough to help his team get back to the top?
