What happened to Sanders?

For the past few weeks, athletes and fans alike are chiming in to show love and send prayers to Sanders, as his long-term illness has struck him once more. This is also the same illness that led to his two toes being amputated a few years ago.

Unfortunately, this time it has only gotten worse, and the outcome could cause the amputation of his entire left leg. Furthermore, an aneurysm in Sanders’ artery has caused blood clots in his groin, limiting mobility. The surgery took place only a week ago and Sanders has been recovering since.

Despite suffering from this difficult illness, Sanders still showed up to work and took care of his responsibilities. His true dedication to the game proves how he aims to make a stronger comeback and rule ‘college football’.’
