Deion Sanders used his athleticism and work ethic to become one of the best players in NFL history.
He also pursued a career in baseball and starred in MLB for years.
However, he knows not everybody will have the same opportunities he built for himself once their college days are over.
That’s why he’s giving some of his students a big helping hand.
As revealed by Bleacher Report on Twitter, the legendary player and now head coach has partnered with a local bank in Colorado to help out his players with their kids.

Sanders reportedly set the players up with a bank account stocked with $2,121, which was clearly a nod to his legendary number.

He announced that to the team after a speech on fatherhood.
He was joined by a representative of Elevations Credit Union, who then let the players know about this kind gesture.
Sanders has always spoken highly of family and how important it is to him.
He admittedly struggled mightily during his divorce, but he’s made sure to stay close to every single one of his children along the way.
Notably, two of them, Shilo and Shedeur, will pursue NFL dreams of their own after this season.
