what happened to coach prime

According to the search results, Deion Sanders, also known as Coach Prime, has been experiencing blood flow problems to his left foot. In 2021, he had two toes amputated due to blood clots, which caused him to miss three games while coaching at Jackson State. Recently, doctors performed an ultrasound to determine the cause of pain that occurs when he wears shoes for a long stretch of time, and they found that he may need to have his left foot amputated. Sanders medical team included orthopedic surgeon Dr. Ken Hunt and vascular surgeons Dr. Max Wohlauer and Dr. Donald Jacobs. Sanders underwent an amputation of his big toe and 2nd toe on his left foot due to blood clots in his femoral artery, which caused a lack of blood flow to the rest of his leg and foot. After the surgery, he continued to have pain and the surgically repaired toe started to turn black and lose circulation. Sanders had to undergo emergency surgery and hospitalization for almost a month. However, he has since undergone successful foot surgery and was back on the sidelines walking without support, leading Colorado to an unexpected win against TCU.
