In light of Deion Sanders’ latest health update, many people are praying for him:
The Colorado head coach has been dealing with an undisclosed issue for a few weeks now and had to return home to Texas from Boulder to get some rest. But it appears he’s almost back to where he’d like to be.
The former NFL cornerback took to Instagram this weekend to thank his son, Deion Jr., for being with him every step of the way while announcing he’s soon to sell out a stadium.
“#Every little step I take My son @deionsandersjr has been there so we’ve decided to keep on stepping! #CoachPrime coming to a stadium sold out soon,” he wrote.
The post followed another from a day earlier in which he declared that he was getting one step closer every day.
“1 step closer Everyday, I’m Walking it out! Our Team is working their butts off therefore I’ve got to match that (fire) they have!” Coach Prime shared.
