Deion Sanders spent the entire summer at his Prime Estate in Texas recovering from an unknown health issue. The Colorado Buffaloes head coach did not make any public appearances until the recent Big 12 Media Days.
On Friday, Sanders, worth $60 million per Celebrity Net Worth, shared a post on social media. In the clip shared on Instagram, he expressed gratitude to his eldest son, Deion Sanders Jr., also known as "Bucky," for a special gift. "Coach Prime" showed off custom-made tennis rackets from Wilson as he tried them on in his private tennis field.
The tennis racket had "Prime" written over it, much to the delight of the Colorado coach. He then went on to talk about the tennis session he had, as he looks to regain his strength after losing almost 14 pounds due to the unknown sickness.
