The news prompted an outpouring of support from fans and followers, as the football community rallied around the legendary coach.
In his post, Sanders expressed gratitude for the good wishes and prayers he received during this challenging time. He reassured fans that he is on the path to recovery and remains optimistic about his health moving forward.
Feeling Blessed
“Wow, I am truly blessed for the abundance of well wishes, for all the thoughts and all of the prayers. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!” Sanders wrote on X. He went on to emphasize that everything is okay and that he has faith in his recovery, stating, “God got me like no other. I have so much more work to do to Glorify God so please believe God got me!”
The coach looked forward to returning to Colorado, where he plans to be with his coaching staff and team. His statement hinted at a strong connection with his players and an eagerness to continue working with them, saying, “When we arrive back to Boulder you will be updated on everything. Until then, I’M COMING BABY.”
Shedeur Sanders’ Response
During recent workouts, Shedeur Sanders, quarterback for the Cleveland Browns and Deion’s son, chose not to comment on his father’s health. However, Deion Sanders Jr. did share with USA Today that his father was “feeling well,” further easing fans’ worries.
Health Issues and Challenges
This is not the first time Deion Sanders has faced significant health challenges. In May, he disclosed to the public that he was dealing with ongoing health issues. He mentioned on former NFL cornerback Asante Samuel’s podcast that he had lost 14 pounds, indicating that his situation was serious.
Sanders has endured a series of severe health complications in recent years as well. In 2021, he had to undergo surgery that resulted in the amputation of two toes on his left foot due to blood clots, stemming from a previous operation. Most recently, in 2023, he had another surgery to relieve blood clots in both legs, highlighting the ongoing nature of his health struggles.
Success on the Field
Despite these personal challenges, Sanders has remained committed to his role as head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes. Under his leadership, the team finished with a strong 9-4 record in the 2024 season. This success has solidified his reputation within the NCAA as both a player and coach.
As the Buffaloes gear up for the 2025 season, they will kick off their campaign at home against Georgia Tech on August 29. Sanders’ presence will undoubtedly be pivotal as the team aims for another promising season in college football.

Many fans have taken to social media to share messages of support, illustrating the impact he has made not only as a coach but as a figure in the sport. His positive attitude and determination to overcome obstacles resonate deeply with fans, players, and fellow coaches.
As Sanders continues his recovery, fans remain hopeful for his swift return to full health. His experience serves as a reminder of the dedication required not only to sports but also to one’s overall well-being.
In closing, Deion Sanders embodies resilience in the face of adversity. His commitment to his health and his team showcases the drive that defines his career and character. As the football season approaches, the desire for his well-being and the Buffaloes’ success continues to grow.
