Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders expressed concerns that he might be dealing with more blood clots as he was seen sitting at times during the team’s loss to TCU on Saturday.
Sanders underwent treatment for bladder cancer during the offseason. It was also revealed that a section of his intestine was reconstructed to function as a bladder. He vowed to continue coaching with a portable toilet on the sideline just in case he needed it.

He said after the game he was “hurting like crazy.”
“Cat’s out of the bag, all right. I think I’ve got more blood clots,” Sanders said. “It don’t make sense. I’m hurting like crazy. … I’m not getting blood to my leg. That’s why my leg is throbbing.”
He said he had a doctor’s appointment on Monday to deal with the issue.
“Sorry to get that out, but thank you for noticing,” he said after being asked about his health.

Prior to the cancer diagnosis, the Pro Football Hall of Famer struggled with issues to his left foot. He had two toes amputated in 2021 because of blood clot issues while at Jackson State.
