"So tomorrow's press conference, it's just going to be one of those things where a lot of the naysayers and player haters are really going to get to know what's been going on for the past 60 to 90 days with Coach Prime and what he fought through and overcame."

Deion Sanders has remained rather quiet this offseason despite enduring severe health problems in previous years. He further went through multiple surgeries and the partial amputation of two toes.
His lack of participation in summer activities only fueled rumors that his time at Colorado Buffaloes was running out.
Understanding the gravity of the situation, his son once said in an emotional video:
"Yesterday was tough... because I had to make a will.
Fans and experts have been waiting for an explanation ever since. Although Deion Sanders has started sharing videos that show he's reportedly "back and feeling great," it's still unclear what exactly his issues are. Now, everyone is eagerly waiting for some answers.

Justin Timberlake Lyme disease: Singer opens up on health struggles; fans ask, ‘Is there a cure?'
Justin Timberlake revealed that he has been diagnosed with Lyme disease. The singer, in a lengthy social media post, reflected on his health struggles and addressed concerns about his Forget Tomorrow tour, which wrapped up this week. Justin Timberlake performs at the 2025 BottleRock Napa Valley(AP) 'I've been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease -— which I don't say so you feel bad for me –– but to shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes,' the 44-year-old wrote on Instagram. The pop star attached photos from his tour. "As I'm reflecting on the tour and festival tour — I want to tell you a little bit about what's going on with me.' 'If you've experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you're aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically. When I first got the diagnosis I was shocked for sure. But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness. I was faced with a personal decision. Stop touring? Or, keep going and figure it out. I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going," he further added. Timberlake's announcement has worried fans. One of them asked on X: 'Is there a cure for Lyme disease?' What is Lyme disease? According to the Mayo Clinic, Lyme disease is caused by borrelia bacteria, which is carried by some ticks. Symptoms include rashes, body pain and stiffness, muscle weakness and immune-system issues. Can Lyme disease be cured? As per Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 'most cases of Lyme disease can be treated with 10-14 days of antibiotics'. 'People treated with appropriate antibiotics in the early stages of Lyme disease usually recover rapidly and completely.'

Healthcare costs in US to shoot up following Trump tariff on Indian goods: Industry experts
New Delhi: Healthcare costs in the US will increase following the imposition of sweeping 25 per cent tariff plus an unspecified penalty on Indian goods, experts from pharmaceuticals and medical devices industry said on Thursday. President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced the imposition of a 25 per cent tariff on all goods coming from India starting August 1, plus an unspecified penalty for buying Russian crude oil and military equipment.

However, for the medical devices sector as long as the gap between duty on China and India is over 15- 20 per cent, there are positive prospects for exports to the US, according to experts. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Top 15 Most Beautiful Women in the World Undo "India isn't just a key supplier of generics to the US. We are a part of the backbone of affordable global healthcare. These duties may interrupt the smooth trade flow, inflate US drug costs, stall treatments, and put even greater pressure on American healthcare budgets," OmniActive Health Technologies Executive Chairman and MD Sanjaya Mariwala said. On the other hand, he said, "Back home, the profits for Indian pharmaceutical firms may decline, and R&D may stagnate, slowing down innovation and stalling new drug clearances." Live Events AiMeD (Association of Indian Medical Device Industry) Forum Coordinator Rajiv Nath said, "Duties impact for Indian medical devices sector has to be seen from relative competitiveness - as long as duty gap between Chinese versus Indian is over 15- 20 per cent, we have positive prospects to export to USA and even put production lines in USA." Currently Indonesia and Vietnam have lower duties by 6 per cent. So for products made there they will possibly enjoy a price competitive advantage over India, he added. Stating that clarity will come after August 12 as then duties on Chinese goods will be clear, Nath said, "They were increased to over 50 per cent but temporarily reduced to 30 per cent. If post-August duties on Chinese medical devices revert to over 50 per cent and on Indian at 25 per cent, the export prospects versus China are in our favour..." He further said, "Suffice to say that whatever is the final duty that is finally announced on medical devices, if it's at least 15-20 per cent lower than applicable duty rates by US onto China then there is a strong opportunity for Indian medical devices to increase their exports to US market, if they are able to absorb the excessive high cost of regulatory approval of USFDA for market entry and find that these costs to export are sustainable over the years." However, he said, the government of India and manufacturers will need to work to improve India's competitiveness "so that we can offset the 6 per cent disadvantage over Indonesian and Vietnam competitors". Grant Thornton Bharat Partner and Tax Controversy Management Leader Manoj Mishra pointed out that the strong language used by President Trump and ongoing investigations into drug imports mean that the risk is not over yet. "Indian pharma companies should stay prepared for possible changes, especially if sector-specific duties are introduced later. That said, these tariffs are likely to be in place only for a short period, as both countries are expected to fast-track discussions for a Bilateral Trade Agreement. A balanced and stable trade deal will be key to protecting long-term interests of the sector," he noted. Similarly, Choice Broking Equity Research Analyst- Pharma Sector, Maitri Sheth said the US remains heavily reliant on India for its pharmaceutical needs, with about 50 per cent of generic drugs sourced from India. "Given the critical nature of healthcare and already elevated healthcare costs in the US, we view the likelihood of material near-term tariffs on pharma as low," Sheth added. While the headline risk persists, the structural dependence on Indian pharma and the cost sensitivity of the US healthcare system provide a strong case against aggressive tariff action on the sector, Sheth added. Medical Technology Association of India (MTaI) Chairman Pavan Choudary said President Trump's is "troubling and seems economically shortsighted and strategically misguided".
