Deion Sanders‘ ex-wife, Tracey Edmonds, shares her sentiments on the occasion of Martin Luther King Jr.’s 95th birthday. The 56-year-old businesswoman has been in the limelight ever since her saddening split from Deion after 12 years of being together. Deion-Tracey even got engaged in 2019, but it never followed through with a wedding.

Deion’s split from Tracey indicates that he’s always had a bumpy ride when it comes to his romantic life. Edmonds was the third woman in his life, right after Carolyn Chambers and Pilar Sanders. Though he’s one of the best players to ever touch a football, Coach Prime has lacked the MVP status on a more personal end. Since their split, Edmonds has been more active about her life on social media than ever before. Today, as the world remembers MLK today, she vividly shared her thoughts and paid her due respects to the king who had a dream.

On the account of MLK day, Tracey Edmonds took to Instagram to share a heartfelt note for the legendary activist. She spoke a lot about his influence on the masses and how she faced difficulty selecting one of his quotes since all of them were equally inspiring. She settled with the quote, “The time is always right to do what is right.”

She penned an emotional caption with the post and wrote, “Happy Martin Luther King Day Fam! If there was EVER someone I wish I could have met it’s HIM! It was so hard choosing a quote for this post because he has SO MANY poignant ones that hit SO HARD and will FOREVER stand the test of time just like his legacy! He will always be the LEADER OF GENERATIONS! Sending everyone PEACE and LOVE on this special day!! ✌🏽❤️ #mlkday,” With all that said, here’s a look at how the NFL is planning to honor the legend of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

The NFL’s plans to celebrate the legacy of the man who dared to dream, Martin Luther King Jr.

The league has announced a 5-year plan partnership with RTD which stands for, Realizing the Dream. This platform was created by Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, and Yolanda Renee King.
