Son: Deion Sanders making 'progress' amid health issue
Deion Sanders Jr. posted a video of his father fishing at his Texas estate to YouTube on Saturday.
"It's a beautiful thing," Deion Sanders Jr. says in the video. "Coach Prime back active, moving around. God is great. Not back active moving around, but it's progress."
In the video, the elder Sanders, 57, is shown driving the fishing boat, which also counts former Colorado star and Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter among the passengers.
Neither Sanders nor Colorado officials have given specifics about the nature of the health issue the coach is facing. He has been away from Boulder, missing annual youth camps he normally would have attended. He is scheduled to attend a Big 12 preseason media event on July 9 in Frisco, Texas.
Sanders addressed his health in a social media post on June 11.
"I can assure you all that everything is OK and will continue to be so," he posted to X. .".. I'm excited to get back to Colorado to be at home with my staff, team & all associated to our program. When we arrive back to Boulder you will be updated on everything."
It is unclear when Sanders will return to the Buffaloes.
A member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Sanders required multiple surgeries for persistent blood clots in recent years. He had two toes amputated in 2021 to address clotting issues.

Terrified boy savagely beaten by THREE football player bullies at Christian summer camp while fourth filmed
A student athlete was filmed being savagely beaten by three football players while taking part in a Christian summer camp. The horrific ordeal, which has gone viral online, occurred during a Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) camp at Presbyterian College in South Carolina on July 7. According to lawyers representing the boy, the perpetrators were DW Daniel High School football players - whose friends also recorded the punch-up. Their football coach, Chris Stone, has been put on leave following the fight. Several students have been criminally charged over the gory attack, the school board announced, without providing further details. Daily Mail has contacted Pickens County Sheriff's Office for further details. In the frightening footage, the victim was punched in the face by one individual before another person attacked him inside a dorm room. The unnamed boy was pushed onto the bed by the two, who continued to assault him. The young man attempted to block their punches with his hands. He was then pushed out of frame as one individual said, 'I got to get in here', before they joined in with the beatdown. While the three carried out the attack, another could be seen filming it. The group then backed away from the boy before one returned to punch him in the head. As the three left the room, one of them said: 'Don't even get up', as another added: 'Watch your s*** next time, you know we are not the same n****.' In a statement to Malarkey News, the boy said his attackers had accused him of using racial slurs prior to the assault, which he has denied. He said the attack left him with a 'serious' concussion, and bruises across his head and ribcage. He added that he is no longer able to participate in combat sports. The law firm representing the boy said the camp was a school-sanctioned event with the FCA renting out the campus when the incident took place. In a statement earlier this week, the Pickens County School District Board of Trustees said that several DW Daniel High students were criminally charged after the fight. They said: 'The full Board of Trustees of the School District of Pickens County was made aware late last week that a very serious incident occurred at a school sponsored football camp at Presbyterian College earlier this month. 'Board members have now seen the disturbing video that is circulating on social media. 'This incident, which involved numerous student athletes, resulted in the injury of one student and criminal charges for several students.' It added: 'This matter is serious, not acceptable, and is being addressed by the administration and law enforcement. 'According to the statement all of those involved are minors, and that they are all facing disciplinary action at school and athletic levels. 'The Board is appalled that this serious incident occurred and that a student was injured during a school-sponsored event.' The football coach of the Daniel High School team Chris Stone has also been placed on administrative paid leave as the district conducts an investigation. Stone was brought in to lead the team in April of this year, with the victim saying in his statement that Stone was inside the building at the time. 'Multiple teammates were coming in and out while I was trapped in my room, but nobody thought to get a coach', the boy said. In a statement, 8th Circuit Solicitor David Stumbo said his office was aware of the fight and was monitoring the situation. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes said that the behavior of those captured on their camp 'falls unacceptably short of our standards'. The law firm said they released the footage in hopes of other people coming forward with information that could help the investigation.

Ramon Urias to Astros, Andrew Kittredge to Cubs as Orioles sell
July 31 - The Houston Astros got their third baseman, acquiring Ramon Urias and cash considerations from the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday for minor-league pitching prospect Twine Palmer. Also Thursday, the Orioles sent right-hander Andrew Kittredge to the Chicago Cubs for minor league shortstop Wilfri De La Cruz. Baltimore has been quite active this month, shipping right-hander Bryan Baker to the Tampa Bay Rays on July 10, left-hander Gregory Soto to the New York Mets last Friday and righty Seranthony Domínguez to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday. Urias, 31, batting.248 with eight homers and 34 RBIs in 77 games on the season, is poised to take over as the starting third baseman for the Astros. Isaac Parades could miss the rest of the season with a hamstring injury. Urias is a career .259 hitter with 47 homers and 205 RBIs in 506 games with the Orioles. He also won a Gold Glove as a third baseman in 2022, joining Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson (16 times) and Manny Machado (twice) as the lone members of the team to do so. Palmer, 20, posted a 2-0 record with a 2.13 ERA in 13 appearances (eight starts) with Single-A Fayetteville. The 6-foot-5 right-hander was selected by the Astros in the 19th round of the 2024 first-year player draft out of Connors State College in Oklahoma. Kittredge, 35, is 2-2 with a 3.45 ERA in 31 relief appearances this season since signing a one-year, $9 million contract in February. He is 25-14 with 16 saves and a 3.44 ERA in 286 career relief appearances (15 starts) with the Rays, St. Louis Cardinals and Orioles. De La Cruz, 17, batted .262 in 27 games in the Dominican Summer League. --Field Level Media
