Prime Time | The Story Behind Deion Sanders

His resume is unrivaled. His highlights are unforgettable. And his swagger is unmistakable.
A two-sport superstar whose brilliance on the football field and baseball diamond made him one of the most legendary figures in the history of American sports - and whose singular showmanship made him an icon.

[@17thNO]

The greatest athlete I have ever seen. 2 sports played at the same time, played all three phases on the football field, Started on offense and defense in the NFL. Defensive Player of The Year, played in the Superbowl and World Series, won 2 Superbowls. Nobody has his resume. Also a great businessman.

Bo was pretty decent

[@bookiebrown7012e]

Bo Jackson was way better than deion at both sports

[@bara7331]

@@petermcdougall1152 just "pretty decent"? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡

[@lucianostevenjames]

Sanders greatest CB of all time and Bo potentially and talent wise could have been the greatest RB of all time if he would have focused just on football and stayed healthy maybe. Sanders dominated His position hall of fame cb. I always thought Bo was a far better football player than baseball

[@milkflameee]

The most accomplished sports figure in human history. He has used every gift God has blessed him with.

[@thomasredden4263]

I served him at in IHOP in Highland Village once, he was such a wonderful dude to talk to, never got annoyed with my questions, was really engaged and quite happy to sit and talk football with me, tipped very well for a meal worth like 7 dollars. Also played football with Jr. He was a senior when I was a freshman and he was one of the few seniors who didn’t completely try to walk all over the underclassmen and truly was just a really good guy. His dad was a huge part of getting the really nice facilities we had at Marcus built and we had better practice facilities than the bengals did up until just a few years ago when they finally started to invest in the team after burrow got there. Hell of a football player yes, but an even better man and teacher of men

[@robertmiligi4835]

I don't care who you are, if your any kind of sports fan in America ,you gotta love prime time ,he was electric to watch

[@UncleTee99]

“I practice like I play, So when I play it’s like I practice “ He’s pretty saying the shit is too easy for him

[@user-qd2yc3jq3w]

That man is unbelievable that’s why I would never doubt him not when it comes to sports

[@user-di2ng4yg5n]

You mean to tell me, this man played two professional sports all year round for almost a decade? Literally no off seasons.

[@MalcolmWallace]

Dion has never smoked, never got high and never drank a drop of alcohol. Commendable with the culture within the sporting arena SurfingLife with Malcolm

[@nivarrevilo]

Too busy too determined and too blessed!!!the best athletes don't or have never done dope or drink see Floyd Mayweather ect

[@DuecePiece]

Best CB of all time hands down, great at baseball batting over .400 in the World Series, and now not only brought Jackson State up as an HBCU- but is completely changing the game coaching at Colorado! Dude just wins at everything he does because he has a big heart and doesn't shy away from putting every ounce of it in all he does! 🤘🔥

[@Coolmike19]

That was a great tribute for the greatest player who ever lace up his shoes football and Baseball. He is still today is Must See TV

[@obsidian00]

"The King Of Rizz" ...he talked it because he WALKED it!!! All the lesser beings can do is HATE on Greatness...

[@smoothvandal916]

Deion has and always will be the greatest.

[@michaeltran2743]

Played basketball with Deion a few years ago. I’m 5’8 and I had to guard him. He’s just a tad taller than me. He’s listed at 6’1 when he was playing in the nfl, but he definitely wasn’t over 6ft. But he was still very athletic for his age. Once he and I went up for a rebound, dude literally out jumped me and I could feel his stomach on the top of my head. I was 23 and have never been embarrassingly out jumped by someone around my height for a rebound. He did that and humbled my ass.

[@i60s]

Great story! and yeah his son Shedeur is listed at 6'2, which would make him only an inch taller than Prime. Standing next to each other it's obvious Shedeur is like 3-4 inches taller.

[@goinhot9133]

With a bad foot 😮

[@jojosaylor8996]

His might be only 5'11

[@nbapbaupdate8338]

GREATEST athlete no doubt 🔥🔥🔥

[@tonyc8752]

Sanders was drafted 1 spot ahead of the St. Louis Cardinals in both football and baseball. Impressive

[@isaellife]

This video needs a like x100 button. To see a human that uses every ounce of God given talent and favor is worth it.

[@willrandolph9664]

@@davidmathewson1088 The direct display of one's exuberant confidence leading to great successes in life. You can call it what you want.

[@MoeyViews]

FSU needs to sign this man!!!

[@obsidian00]

It would be GLORIOUS!!!

[@coldeewayne379]

Read the story about what happened

[@alexmiller7173]

FSU could have hired Deion Sanders as head coach a few years ago instead of Willie Taggert who turned out to be a bad hire. Deion didn't have any coaching experience so he was unproven. They also could have hired Mack Brown before UNC brought him back but I assume they felt that he was washed up. Norvell has the team heading in the right direction now.

[@willismartin9196]

He's a baaaad man ! And that's a good thing 😊

[@thetruthhurts8618]

Prime Time is easily the best athlete ever!!! I’m not sure if we can get another one like him but you can argue that Bo Jackson is the greatest too!

[@thanos9846]

So much Jerry Curl in one spot. I did not think that was possible.

[@juanrodriguezjr451]

Everybody seems to 'forget' there was another 2 sport phenom. Brian Jordan. That played with Prime on the Braves and Falcons. Dude was a GUY. Strong Safety and put a hat on Bo a couple of times.

[@stingrey1571]

unfortunately we will never see another deion or bo. there are rules in contracts prohibiting players from riding motorcycles. no way will they allow them to play another sport, especially if they are a key player.

[@MrDuds1984]

The greatest moment of Deion’s career when was he loafed running out a pop fly and Carlton Fisk told him off and threaten to kick his ass at home plate.

Deion is from ft.myers Florida where i live. I remember one time he was fishing in his bass boat off I75 in this big lake. The cops showed up, and he told them they would have to wait until he gets a couple casts in before they ticketed him. And thats exactly what they did. Lol.

[@ryanritchie7921]

Fake! Nice video but the audio editing from game footage was a turn off.

[@NicholleChristineEdwards]

So it was it was either him or Bo Jackson getting picked for CU to change the Game for college football. I swear to the Heavens amongst others. So many good players were being dropped from CU and then asked to Walk On try out 4-5 years after NOT being recruited from CU. So much money was invested into the field- and if you win ALL THE TIME but NO ONE in America has heard of your Team- ever. People didn’t even know CU EXSIST Ed because all you ever heard is that the Hispters set their couches on fire and rode bikes naked. THATS IT! Crazy! Good. Wake up & reposition the sights man. Over it. ✌️
