Deion Sanders Says He May Have New Blood Clots After Painful Scene in Colorado’s Loss at TCU

His disclosure follows years of circulation problems that led to toe amputations.

Overview

  • The 58-year-old coach said after Saturday's 35-21 defeat that he is "hurting like crazy" and believes clots have returned in his left leg.
  • During the fourth quarter in Fort Worth, he removed his left shoe and sat on a stool at times, saying he was not getting blood to his leg.
  • Sanders scheduled a medical appointment for Monday to evaluate the issue, with diagnosis and any treatment plan still pending.
  • He previously had two toes amputated in 2021 due to clotting and underwent additional clot-removal procedures in 2023.
  • Sanders had his bladder removed this year and his doctor said he was cancer-free before the season, as Colorado fell to 2-4 (0-3 Big 12) with questions about his short-term availability raised in media coverage.
