Deion Sanders Suspects Additional Blood Clots in Health Update
Deion Sanders Faces Health Challenges Following Colorado Loss
Following a disappointing 35-21 defeat against Texas Christian University (TCU), Colorado head coach Deion Sanders expressed his ongoing health concerns, revealing that he believes he may have more blood clots in his leg. The 58-year-old coach admitted, “Cat’s out of the bag, all right. I think I’ve got more blood clots. It don’t make sense. I’m hurting like crazy. … I’m not getting blood to my leg. That’s why my leg is throbbing.”
Coach Sanders’ Health Struggles and Impacts
During the game, Sanders appeared to struggle with his condition, sitting down at various points on the sidelines. He indicated that he has a medical appointment scheduled to address these health issues. “Sorry to get that out, but thank you for noticing,” he responded when asked about his well-being.
Medical History: Overcoming Major Health Issues
Sanders has faced significant health challenges over the past year. Earlier this summer, he took time off from coaching the Buffaloes (2-4, 0-3 in Big 12 play) to receive treatment for bladder cancer. Fortunately, his doctor assured him prior to the season that he was considered cured. Additionally, Sanders underwent a significant medical procedure that involved reconstructing a section of his intestine to function as a bladder.
Previous Complications and Current Challenges
Known for his remarkable athletic career in both the NFL and Major League Baseball, Sanders has had ongoing complications related to blood clot issues. In 2021, he underwent surgery to amputate two toes on his left foot, which he has struggled with ever since. These issues have also led to missed events, including the Pac-12 media day in 2023, after he underwent procedures to remove a blood clot from his right leg and to straighten his left foot’s toes.
Future Outlook for Sanders and the Buffaloes
As Sanders navigates these health challenges, his coaching prowess remains crucial for the Colorado Buffaloes as they aim to turn their season around. Fans and supporters will be watching closely to see how he manages both his health and the team’s performance in the coming weeks.
