Deion Sanders, affectionately known as Coach Prime, recently found himself at the center of online speculation after a clip surfaced of him allegedly sidestepping his ex-wife, Pilar Sanders, at a football game. This clip, which quickly made its rounds on social media, hinted at lingering tension.
On a recent episode of The Pacman Jones Show, Coach Prime tackled the rumors head-on. The host, Pacman Jones, didn’t hesitate to joke about the moment, asking Sanders about his agility on the field. “Knees doing well? Legs, ankle, feet, look like they doing pretty good,” he teased.
Sanders, catching onto the playful jab, responded with a laugh but was quick to clarify the situation. Using football lingo, he explained, “First of all, I’m a Punt Returner. You see the field. You make an assessment. I was thinking about giving my team a pregame speech, and that’s where my focus was.”
This exchange highlighted the light-hearted banter between Sanders and Jones, while also defusing some of the drama surrounding the video. Coach Prime’s narrative was straightforward—his priority was the team, not avoiding Pilar.
Deion and Pilar Sanders, who were married from 1999 to 2015, share three children: Shilo, Shedeur, and Shelomi. While their relationship has had its ups and downs, public interactions continue to draw attention.
The viral clip isn’t the only instance of the two keeping their distance; other videos have captured similar moments. Nevertheless, Coach Prime is focused on the future. The upcoming bowl game featuring the Colorado Buffaloes against BYU is where his attention lies.
Sanders’s leadership has already led Colorado to its first Heisman Trophy win with player Travis Hunter. The excitement in the air is palpable, as this marks a significant milestone for the team.
Despite the buzz around the viral clip, Deion Sanders remains unfazed, concentrating on his coaching duties and upcoming challenges. His encounter with Pilar may have stirred online chatter, but Coach Prime is all about the game.
