Deion Sanders praises God at presser on bladder cancer battle: 'You have no idea how good God has been to me'

College football coach Deion Sanders is giving thanks to God for enabling him to survive a cancer battle, maintaining that people "have no idea how good God has been to me.”

Sanders, a former NFL football player who is now the head football coach at the University of Colorado Boulder, discussed his medical prognosis at a press conference alongside medical professionals Monday.
