Colorado coach Deion Sanders, who has been suffering from an undisclosed medical condition, is expected to be back on the job soon.

That's according to former NFL cornerback Adam 'Pacman' Jones, who recently went fishing with Sanders at his Texas estate. Jones posted a video of his comments, made in a BetOnline interview, to his Instagram account.

'Deion's doing good,' Jones said. 'I think he got another week at home before they get started. He'll be there. He'll be ready to go.'

'Thanks to everybody that has been praying and sending good thoughts and prayers his way,' Jones added.

Sanders, 57, posted a video to his Instagram account two days ago following a visit to his estate by Lil Wayne. Sanders is seen walking, a bit gingerly, with the rapper.

Neither Sanders nor Colorado officials have given specifics about the nature of the health issue the coach is facing. He has been away from Boulder, missing annual youth camps he normally would have attended. He is scheduled to attend a Big 12 preseason media event on Wednesday in Frisco, Texas.

Sanders addressed his health in a social media post on June 11.

'I can assure you all that everything is OK and will continue to be so,' he posted to X. '... I'm excited to get back to Colorado to be at home with my staff, team & all associated to our program. When we arrive back to Boulder you will be updated on everything.'

A member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Sanders required multiple surgeries for persistent blood clots in recent years. He had two toes amputated in 2021 to address clotting issues, but it is unclear whether that is related to his current health status.

The Buffaloes open the season at home on Aug. 29 against Georgia Tech.
