Deion Sanders says an NFL coach stays on top list of celebrities

You'll never guess who Coach Prime gets starstruck over

Deion Sanders has been the talk of the sport world for the greater part of the past month. The Colorado Buffaloes coach has put the program back on the map after being forgotten about for well over a decade.   

Many people have come to visit Coach Prime to witness him work his magic in Boulder and this weekend will be no exception with a deep list of celebrities on the sidelines. But there’s one notable person who gets Sanders' undivided attention. He revealed Thursday on his weekly radio appearance that a current NFL coach still makes his top list.   

"One person that you wouldn’t think that we correspond that’s really good is Andy Reid," Sanders said.

Sanders has history with Reid going back to his early days in Dallas. The two have bonded with each other over the years and it's not had to see why. Reid will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame one day for his accomplishment, which is a journey Sanders has already experienced. Coach Prime is new to a scene that Reid helped build in the late 80s.       

 "I respect the heck out of him. You gotta know that. But just, you know, just coming in after practice and you look on there and there’s a text from Andy Reid. I’m like, 'Wow! What’s up, Coach? Coach, can you help me with his running game?'"

Sanders also gushed about Reid's star tight end Travis Kelce his week. It appears he has built a good relationship with the defending Super Bowl Champs.
