DeSean Jackson Reveals Surprising Impact of Deion Sanders on His Coaching Ambitions

As DeSean Jackson approaches his first season as coach of Delaware State, he has never hesitated to show his appreciation to Deion Sanders for his coaching journey. While Sanders isn’t the first former NFL player to become an HBCU coach, he commanded attention at Jackson State like no other before him.

In a recent appearance on All Facts, No Breaks, he spoke about his appreciation for Sanders.

“Coach Prime, man, I can’t stress enough about how he’s opened doors up for guys like myself,” Jackson said. “We talked about Michael Vick being at Norfolk. We play this year. Just being able to learn from guys like him that’s been at an HBCU when he was at Jackson State, now he’s at Colorado, it’s a stepping stone for me.”
