Deion Luwynn Sanders Sr., often known as “Prime Time” or “Neon Deion,” is the head coach of the Jackson State University football and baseball teams after retiring from playing.
What Happened to Deion Sanders’s Leg?
Deion Sanders, head coach at Jackson State, had surgery to remove three blood clots from his femoral artery. The big toe and second toe on his left foot had to be amputated as a result.
On March 8, Sanders, an NFL Hall of Famer, said that in the fall of 2017 doctors had to “fillet open” and drain his leg to save it from having to be amputated below the knee.
Jackson State’s head coach has lately spoken publicly about the difficulties he had in the wake of foot surgery. He said he almost lost his left leg and two toes during the initial treatment but battled fiercely to recover.
The details were unveiled in the series finale of Coach Prime, a docuseries produced by Barstool Sports and SMAC Entertainment. It follows as ‘Neon Deion’ guides his Jackson State team to victory.

Sanders revealed his healing in a November YouTube video. He credited God withÂ
helping him get through his hospital stay in a YouTube video:
“Lord I thank you, I see you hear me say that and you don’t know where that comes from,” Sanders said. “It’s a wheelchair right here and I’m in that chair, nevertheless I say Lord I thank you. I can’t walk on my own and people have to help me get in and out of everything, but I say Lord I thank you. It’s hard to even make it to the bathroom by myself without the assistance of others, but Lord I thank you.”
Sanders wondered how he could continue to praise God despite his limited ability toÂ
improve his situation.
“Because I’m alive. And I got another opportunity to help you. See I often say when much is given, much is required but we don’t understand the backside of that,” Sanders said. “So you think I’m going to praise him up here and I can’t praise him when I’m going through my affliction? The only reason I’m going through my affliction is that the devil is smart enough to know that I change things.”
Sanders revealed his pain in a video:
“You have no idea what I’ve dealt with,” Sanders said. “You have no idea what the voices I’ve heard, you have no idea the pain I felt, you have no idea what I’m going through, and still Lord I thank you. I hear you.”
