""I said, 'You call buddy at the gate, because I'll be at the front this afternoon,' and the gate was open,'" Sapp told ESPN. "I went to see him. I'm just that guy. I'm a bull in a china shop. I'm going through the front door.""
""I just wanted to see my man and put my hands on him and hug him," Sapp said. "I just wanted him to tell me, 'I'm fine, I'll be there.' And that's what he said: 'I'm good.' ... I'm right back in front of him, and the jokes flowed, the stabs and the jabs. He's still Prime, all day long.""
"Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders is still at Colorado to lead his team, following the most serious health scare in a series of medical challenges. An athletic marvel who played in both the NFL and MLB, Sanders has had 14 surgeries since 2021, including the amputation of two toes because of blood clots."
Deion Sanders left Colorado in the spring for his Texas ranch to recover from surgery that removed and reconstructed his bladder after a cancerous tumor was detected. Sanders has undergone 14 surgeries since 2021, including the amputation of two toes because of blood clots. Sanders did not fully disclose the extent of his condition and shielded sons Shedeur and Shilo during the NFL draft process. Warren Sapp visited Sanders after calls and texts went unanswered to check on him, embrace him and hear that Sanders was "good." Sanders remains at Colorado and continues to lead the football program.
