Deion Sanders published a video on Instagram with what seemed a doctor, who verified the Hall of Fame cornerback is going to have “a couple of surgical treatments” on Thursday to get rid of another blot clot in his ideal leg. Medical professionals also will straighten two of Sanders’ toes so they do not cause anymore discomfort in his shoes.

Sanders had successful surgery last month to repair embolism in his left leg, according to Instagram posts from both him and his fiancĂ©e, Tracey Edmonds. The treatment was for an embolism in his left thigh and another in the same leg below his knee.While training Jackson State in 2021, Jackson was hospitalized after problems from surgical treatment to repair a dislocated toe. He experienced blood clots, missed three games and underwent a number of more surgeries, consisting of the elimination of 2 toes.”I promise you when we head out to TCU
