The former NFL superstar has been absent from Colorado activities with an undisclosed illness.
Sanders had to be hospitalized in 2021, when he was at Jackson State, due to complications from a surgery to repair a turf toe injury.
He struggled with circulation problems, and with his history of blood clots, he eventually lost two toes.
It didn’t hurt his spirit, and he returned to lead the team to a bowl game and the SWAC championship.
The Super Bowl champion is recovering in Texas but will be back in Colorado as soon as he’s cleared to return to work.
In the meantime, Shedeur Sanders is trying to win the Cleveland Browns’ starting quarterback job in what’s one of the hottest storylines of the NFL offseason.
Asked about his father, the young player claimed his dad was in good spirits and shut down any major concerns.
