Deion Sanders practically did it all in life, and his endeavors have unsurprisingly been carried on by his kids. He went through two marriages and is on the brink of a third one.
Currently, the 56-year-old is making waves for calling the shots for the Colorado Buffaloes. That alone has drawn worldwide attention, especially when the Buffs made a surprising 3-0 run to open the 2023 NCAA football season.
Also making it special is his two sons playing under him at Colorado State. They are Shilo Sanders and Shedeur Sanders, his sons from his second wife, Pilar Biggers-Sanders.
Shilo Sanders
Shilo is the eldest child of Deion Sanders with Biggers-Sanders. He is technically Coach Prime's middle son, who has followed his dad's passion for football.
And while that seems to be the case, Shilo made it clear that he wants to make a name for himself alone, ESPN reported.
The 23-year-old has been around, having played for Florida State, the University of South Carolina, and Jackson State University. With two years of eligibility left, Shilo Sanders followed his father to Colorado State after earning his degree at Jackson State.
Shedeur Sanders
One of the famous names in college football at the moment, Shedeur is someone projected to make it big in the NFL someday. He has been working with his father and older brother, Shilo, since their Jackson State days.
He has had his moments with the Buffaloes as well. His brilliance has caught the eye of many - including future NFL Hall of Famer Tom Brady. The many-time Super Bowl champion branded Shedeur as one of his generation's exceptional and influential players via People.com.
Shelomi Sanders
The youngest child of Deion Sanders is Shelomi Sanders. She has also made a name for herself, although in a different sport - basketball.
Shelomi played for Jackson State in 2022, and her father has been keeping track. As typical fathers do, Coach Prime is very protective of his youngest daughter, someone he closely monitors.
Deiondra Sanders
Deion Sanders' eldest is Deiondra Sanders, from his marriage with Chambers. She delved more into the entertainment industry, another part of Coach Prime that most know.
Deiondra had her share of exposure in show business but became involved in sports in a different capacity. Shelomi is the director of communications for Sc3 Sports Management, a post she has held since 2019.
Deion Sanders Jr.
Deion Jr. also tried his luck in football, although it was not free from controversy. He played for Southern Methodist University, but his career never took off.
Instead, he entered the fashion binge, launching his streetwear clothing line. He also dipped his hands in the entertainment scene, launching several songs: "Swaggin," "Money Old," and "Kandy."
Deion Sanders ex-wives
Deion Sanders has been through two marriages that both ended in separation. He was married to Chambers from 1989 to 1998. A year later, he tied the knot with Biggers-Sanders.
Of the two, his marriage with Biggers was filled with controversies. That includes financial matters, with the 49-year-old claiming that the former NFL player owed her money, TMZ reported.
However, this was rebuffed by Deiondra Sanders, claiming that her mother was an attention-seeker and only after her father's name and money.
Deion Sanders' current love
Although he has been busy coaching the Buffaloes, Sanders still has a life outside of it. He is engaged to Tracy Edmonds, someone he met in 2012.
Edmonds is also a multi-sport athlete, which could explain why they made a connection. The 56-year-old is also a known figure in the entertainment industry outside of sports. Edmonds is a television producer and personality.
Worth noting is that Edmonds was the executive producer of "Deion's Family Playbook" from 2014 to 2015. She admitted that her fondness for Sanders grew as they worked together. They are engaged, although no wedding date has been made public.
