Deion Sanders explains what the Netflix documentary means to him

Deion Sanders has featured in a host of documentaries and reality TV shows over the years. Season 3 of his docuseries “Coach Prime” on Amazon Prime was released earlier this year.

“It means so much to finally be able to tell my unfiltered story, my TRUTH," Sanders said about the upcoming Netflix documentary. "I was PRIME TIME, then I dropped the TIME and went by PRIME, and now I’m in the third quarter of my life and they call me COACH PRIME.”

“Y’all knew a part of me each step of the way, but you never knew DEION … and I’m excited to share that with you all — the highs and lows, the truths and tragedies, and everything in between. They can’t stop or contain what God has purposed.”

Deion Sanders joins a list of NFL stars featured in a documentary on Netflix in the last couple of years. These include Johnny Manziel, Aaron Hernandez, Colin Kaepernick, and Aaron Rodgers.
