Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders' daughter, Deiondra Sanders, has been spending time in Boulder around her father and siblings after giving birth to her son in August on the same day as her father's birthday. Most recently, she spent Thanksgiving with her fiancee, Jacquees, and her extended family as "Coach Prime" spent his day with his players at the Colorado campus.
On Thursday, Deiondra posted pictures on Instagram of her Dallas Cowboys-themed Thanksgiving. In the images, she posed in front of a large poster of her father celebrating a touchdown for the Cowboys during his playing career.

"Thanksgiving was definitely giving 😬," Deiondra Sanders wrote.
How Jacquees changed for Deiondra Sanders
After Deiondra Sanders and Jacquees got engaged in July, the R&B musician posted a vulnerable message on his Instagram stories detailing how his fiance had saved him from a life of alcoholism.
“A lot of people don’t know that you really saved my life… I was an alcoholic for years… I didn’t realize it… I was fighting it, a hard battle but I always knew I could do it if I wanted to but I needed a little more motivation,” Jacquees wrote.
"When you came to ATL Station and got me from the bar from being there for 12 hours and I’m all cut up and hands bleeding, arms skint up and just being an a*****e."
Jacquees has been fairly open about his life as an alcoholic and how it affected his day-to-day life. On Nov. 15, during an appearance on "Super Star TV," Jacquees further highlighted Deiondra's role in his sobriety journey after their engagement.
"On my break, I was really having to get myself together personally," Jacquees said. "You know I've been sober for nine months, no liquor, you feel me? So I've been doing all that, so, that time period I was just getting myself together. You know I recently got engaged, so next year I'm gonna get married." (3:48)
After giving birth in August, Deiondra Sanders shared snippets on her social media platforms of the role that Jacquees has played in supporting her as a first-time mother.
Deiondra Sanders and Jacquees have confirmed that they will get married next year, although they have not yet revealed the exact day of their wedding.
