Coach Deion Sanders wears many hats. He is the head coach of the Buffs, a proud father of five, a motivational speaker, and a soon-to-be grandpa. He’s known for backing his players to excel, and that support extends to his family too. Recently, his eldest daughter, Deiondra Sanders, announced she’s expecting a baby with singer Jacquees. This means Coach Prime will be a grandpa by the start of the football season.
While Deion Sanders jokes about feeling a bit “young” for the role, he’s fully behind his daughter, Deiondra. Her pregnancy has been an emotional rollercoaster, especially at 16 weeks with the physical changes she’s experiencing. Thankfully, she has a strong support system in the form of her dad. Also, their recent heartwarming social media exchange stands as proof of this.
