University of Colorado head football coach and NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, who has previously had two toes amputated, now faces the risk of losing his left foot due to ongoing blood circulation issues.

"I don't have feeling in the bottom of my foot at all," the former NFL star and Hall of Famer told his medical team, in a filmed meeting posted on Youtube for "Thee Pregame show."

Sanders met with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Ken Hunt, vascular surgeons Dr. Donald Jacobs and Dr. Max Wohlauer, and athletic trainer Lauren Askevold to discuss his foot injury and steps to alleviate his pain.
