Sanders wrote in his Instagram story, “You become unstoppable when you work on things people can’t take away from you,” to highlight how determined he has become over the years. Then he named those 5 traits that made him unstoppable in the face of adversity, by adding, “Things like your character, work ethic, habits, mindsets and attitude.” The story has since been deleted. The 2x Super Bowl champ strives to highlight the importance of prioritizing what truly matters in life and encourage the fans to overcome obstacles to become the best version of themselves.

Coach Prime is the ultimate fighter

Sanders was called ‘Prime Time’ in the 90s for a reason. On one hand, he was regarded as one of the most ruthless defensive backs in the NFL, and on the other, he dominated the MLB courts with his peak athletic prowess. He gathered trophies left and right throughout his illustrious career, solidifying his remarkable achievements. Although Sanders has come a long way since then, he still continues to assert his dominance in the field as a highly accomplished coach.

After taking over the Colorado Buffaloes, Sanders showed how the job is actually done. He literally initiated an exodus that resulted in 80% of the existing player’s departure from the college roster. Then, he recruited top-tier footballers with peak potential to create a team that is now feared by every opponent in the college league. And he did all this in the span of a few months while battling a severe health complication.
