Deion Sanders Addresses Health, Focuses on Team Rebuild

Deion Sanders, head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, declined to disclose details about his ongoing health issues during multiple Big 12 Media Days appearances but assured he is feeling well and focused on the team. Both Sanders and his son have publicly stated he is recovering and will share updates upon his return to Boulder. Despite his absence from several team events in spring and summer due to an undisclosed illness, Sanders reiterated that he is 'already back' and eager for the upcoming season. His history of health problems, including blood clots and toe amputations, has fueled speculation, but Colorado athletic director Rick George indicated Sanders will resume his duties soon. Sanders is now concentrating on rebuilding the Buffaloes after losing key players and selecting a new starting quarterback. He expressed readiness and optimism as he enters his third season at Colorado.
