Deion Sanders will miss Pac-12 media day because of a procedure to remove a blood clot from his right leg and another to straighten toes on his left foot.
The first-year Colorado coach announced his latest medical update on social media Wednesday. He was scheduled to have surgery Thursday. Media day for the Pac-12 is Friday in Las Vegas.
The school said in a statement that Sanders will return to coaching in time for preseason camp.
“Everyone at CU wishes Coach a fast recovery and we look forward to seeing him back on campus soon,” the school wrote.
A month ago, Sanders underwent surgery for a blood clot in his leg. He’s struggled with his left foot since having two toes amputated in 2021 because of blood-clot issues while at Jackson State.
“I promise you that when we go to TCU I’m running out in front of our team,” Sanders said of his debut with Colorado in the opener on Sept. 2. “I promise you that.”
