Deion Sanders explained why he kept his bladder cancer diagnosis a secret from his two young sons, Shilo and Shedeur.
“My sons, to this day, don’t know what transpired,” Deion, 57, said during a Monday, July 28 press conference at the University of Colorado. “I just told them it was something with my foot. I wanted them to focus on making the team and now focused on Dad. They really don’t know.”
Deion’s bladder cancer was discovered on April 14, just 10 days before the start of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Shedeur, 23, was ultimately selected in the fifth round by the Cleveland Browns on April 26. After going undrafted, Shilo, 25, signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a free agent.
Deion said his three daughters and oldest son, Deion Jr., were aware of his cancer diagnosis.
“Much love to my son Junior, who has not left my side since we found out what was taking place,” Deion said Monday to his oldest son, who was in attendance at the press conference. “Not one day. He’s been with me here, he’s been with me in Texas, he’s been with me everywhere, everyday.”
Deion added, “I love you for life, son, and I thank you for everything you bring to the table.”

That's a big secret to keep!
I never liked him. Too much mouth.
This diagnosis is nothing more than Deions karma. That male has been trash his whole life.
Deon has always been confident and haters hate that.
I love this young man, yes he talks a lot.But.hes a real man,he speaks truth with confidence.
Ain’t he married to one of the most beautiful-ist woman in the world?? Babyface ex-wife…??? I’ll pray for him
He probably didn't want them stressing at training camp
Now it makes sense why Pilar’s sons kept saying and joking around that their dad was fine when rumors started slipping out about his health. They were left in the dark to focus on their training. Bucky really is the glue to that family. But why include Shelomi in sharing his diagnosis? Shouldn’t she be focused on her training too? Ijs
