Colorado players say how Deion Sanders might be recovering from surgery

The players are missing Coach Prime and can't wait for his return

CU Buffs

The Colorado Buffaloes players were asked on Wednesday what coach Deion Sanders might be doing at home while he recovers from blood clot surgery. The answers were actually pretty epic.

"He's chillin'" (and possibly vibin') while "watching Tubi" and lounging around in "Louis" Vuitton boxers (Yes, Shedeur).

But all jokes aside, he's probably thinking about what's going on at CU's practice and missing his time out of the field. At least that's what his assistant coaches said about Prime's absence. Colorado remains without Sanders while he recovers from surgery to remove blood clots over the weekend.

Prime's fiancée, Tracey Edmonds, provided an update about her man's condition and said the operation was successful and he was resting at home on Monday night. This is Sanders' first significant surgery for an ongoing issue with his lower extremities since being named head coach at CU last December.

Colorado opens the season with a tough non-conference schedule. The Buffs face national runner-up TCU on Sept. 2. before a Big 8 rivalry meeting with Nebraska at Folsom Field the following week. Both games will be part of FOX's Big Noon Kickoff pregame show.
