During his interview during his press conference, Deion Sanders’ doctor revealed that he had undergone surgery to heal the problem.
He is now without cancer after the operation to withdraw his bladder.
“The process was not easy,” said Sanders.
The Prime coach revealed that he had undergone the operation while his son, Sheder Sanders, was waiting for his name to be called to the NFL draft.

“There were scenes you saw, all the bull waste that happened on the day of the draft,” said Sanders.
“It was not only that. It was right, I also knew that I had an upcoming operation.
“My sons, to date, I don’t know what happened, I just told them it was something with my foot, because I wanted to give them the accent on the creation of the team and not focus on dad.”
Sanders was far from Colorado after spring training to deal with his health problems.
He appeared at the Big 12 Media Days earlier this month, but refused to comment on his health.
Despite the difficulties, Sanders will continue to train Colorado this season.
He admitted that training will be more difficult now than his bladder control is much worse.
“I depend on Depense if you know what I mean,” said Sanders.
“I cannot control my bladder. So I get up to go to the bathroom already 4 to 5 times a night.
“And I’m sitting there wake up like my grandson. We in the same thing.
“We have had the same problem right now. We are going through the same tests and tribulations.”
Sanders said fans will probably see portable toilet to the colorado games and that he hopes that he can serve as an example and inspiration for people with similar diagnoses.
“It is simply different and I know that there are many people who go through what I go through and that I treat with what I am doing and do we stop being ashamed of that and keep it,” he said.
“And let’s keep him head on.”
Sanders dealt with multiple health problems during his stay as a colorado chief coach.
He had operations on the leg and foot that led to the amputation of several toes.
