Growing up in the early 90s, Deion Sanders and Bo Jackson were about as big as it got when it came to a professional athlete. Whether he was known as 'Prime Time' or 'Neon Deion,' Deion Sanders was making waves.
And making waves is exactly what Deion is up to at 46. Today Sanders tweeted the following:
Ladies and Gentlemen I am officially announcing "I WILL SUIT UP IN HAWAII" Please let @JerryRice know that a real captain leads by example!
— COACH PRIME (@DeionSanders) January 13, 2014
Now whether he is talking about wearing an actual suit or strapping on the pads one last time, that is to be determined.
Deion Sanders and Jerry Rice are the captains/coaches for this year's Pro Bowl as the NFL is trying to make the game more engaging by having these hall of famers draft their team. Teammates could be facing each other for the first time. It actually does make me want to watch the game. The two will draft their teams on the NFL Network at 8pm on January 22, 2014.
Do you think Deion Sanders and Jerry Rice could play in one exhibition game if the two were to only face one another? Leave a comment below or on my Twitter.
