Deion Sanders has been away from the sidelines for most of the Colorado Buffaloes‘ offseason.
Shedeur Sanders gets uneasy over a sensitive topic
The Hall of Famer-turned-head coach is currently dealing with a mysterious health issue that has kept him at his Texas home for nearly two months.
Though the exact nature of his condition remains undisclosed, Sanders appears to be surrounded by the people who matter most.
On Wednesday, Deion Sanders Jr. posted a video clip to his Instagram story that showed rap legend Lil Wayne visiting Coach Prime at his Texas estate.
The video captured the $170 million hip-hop mogul arriving to greet Sanders, adding a personal touch to an otherwise private chapter in the coach’s life. The moment underscored not only Sanders‘ high-profile connections but also the loyalty of those in his circle during challenging times.
While Sanders continues his rehabilitation away from Boulder, the Buffaloes are keeping things on track without their head coach on-site.
The team’s assistant coaches have taken over the offseason duties, ensuring that Colorado remains focused and prepared. Sanders, meanwhile, has used his social media platform to express gratitude for the support he’s received, especially from family.
Coach Prime praises his son Bucky for staying close during recovery
In a recent Instagram post, Sanders gave a heartfelt shoutout to his eldest son, Deion Sanders Jr., affectionately known as Bucky. His caption offered a glimpse into the bond the two have shared throughout his recovery journey.
“#Every little step I take my son @deionsandersjr has been there so we’ve decided to keep stepping! #CoachPrime coming to a stadium sold out soon,” Sanders wrote in the caption of the post.
The note was both a testament to their father-son relationship and a subtle promise to fans that Sanders fully intends to return to the field soon. While Bucky has been by his father’s side throughout this uncertain time, his other two sons, Shedeur and Shilo, are charting their own paths at the next level.
Shedeur Sanders was once projected as a potential first-round pick but ultimately slipped to the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, where he was selected by the Cleveland Browns. Despite the draft day disappointment, Shedeur is now immersed in training and OTAs, attempting to prove himself as a long-term answer in Cleveland’s quarterback room.
Shilo Sanders, on the other hand, went undrafted but was quickly picked up by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a free agent. The defensive back is now fighting for a spot on the Bucs’ final roster and hoping to make his NFL dreams a reality.
