Colorado head coach Deion Sanders has opened the door to the possibility of having more children. The 57-year-old says age is not a problem and having more children is something he is contemplating. Widely known as “Coach Prime,” Sanders is a Hall of Fame cornerback and a two-time Super Bowl champion during his playing days.

Deion Sanders Says Age Isn’t a Barrier To Having More Children
While many people would not be considering having children at the age of 57, it appears Coach Prime doesn’t mind. The former cornerback is the father of five children: Deiondra, Deion Jr., Shilo, Shedeur, and Shelomi Sanders.
Sanders’ oldest daughter, Deiondra, was born in 1992 with Sanders’ first wife, Carolyn Chambers. This was during the time Sanders had established himself as a force to be reckoned with in Atlanta with both the Falcons and Braves.
His marriage to Chambers also produced Deion Sanders Jr., who is three years younger than Deiondra. Coach Prime’s second marriage to Pilar Sanders produced Shilo, who was born in 1995. Shedeur and Shilo are also the biological sons of Pilar. Prime is also the father of Shelomi Sanders.
“No, I ain’t said I wanted it, I’m contemplating it,” Coach Prime said when asked if he still wanted to father more children. The 57-year-old also added that age isn’t a barrier to him having more children and admitted that he is open to the idea. “Nowadays, you can make some stuff happen in life,” he added.
