Deion Sanders, head coach of Colorado, is facing health challenges while his team struggles on the field. After a loss to TCU, he spoke about his significant pain and concerns over possible new blood clots.
Sanders’ Health Issues and Pain
Sanders expressed distress about his condition, stating, “I think I’ve got more blood clots. It don’t make sense. I’m hurting like crazy.” He was seen in discomfort during the game, even removing his left shoe to alleviate pain.
In the past, Sanders had two toes amputated from his left foot due to blood clots. When asked about his health, he noted he didn’t want to make it the main focus.
Recovery from Bladder Cancer
Sanders is also recovering from bladder cancer, which led him to take time off during the offseason for surgery. His health concerns have added additional pressure amid the current season’s challenges.
The Colorado team is struggling, with a record of 2-4 and failing to win in the Big 12 conference.
Impact of Health on Team Performance
The team’s performance has been impacted by Sanders’ health issues, as they are yet to achieve a conference victory this season. This situation adds to the challenges faced by the players and coaching staff.
As Sanders continues to manage his health, the team hopes for improvements moving forward in the season.
