Deion Sanders hosted Lil Wayne at his Texas home during his recovery and even went snake hunting with the rapper.

Deion Sanders welcomed Lil Wayne to his Texas estate for a surprise visit over the July 4th holiday, which turned into a snake-hunting adventure as the Colorado football coach continues recovering from a health issue that has kept him out of the public eye.

The visit, captured on video and shared by Deion Sanders Jr., showed the Hip-Hop icon and Coach Prime bonding outdoors, with Sanders still visibly in recovery mode.

“Thank You My Brother @liltunechi for coming to visit me & making sure I’m straight @liltwist ,” Sanders Jr. posted. “Love y’all man!”

The clip, posted on July 5, showed the group walking through the property, spotting a snake, and reacting with a mix of humor and caution. The moment added a light-hearted moment to what has otherwise been a serious stretch for the Hall of Famer.

Deion Sanders, who missed multiple June events, including a scheduled appearance on June 11, has been open about his health struggles.

In a conversation with former NFL player Asante Samuel, he said, “What I’m dealing with right now is at a whole other level. I’ve lacked energy and lost 14 pounds.”

Despite the setback, Sanders has remained optimistic about his return to the sidelines.

“I can assure you all that everything is OKAY and will continue to be so,” he said in a statement. “I’m excited to get back to Colorado to be at home with my staff, team & all associated to our program. When we arrive back to Boulder you will be updated on everything.”

The coach also credited his son for standing by him during this time.

“#Every little step I take My son @deionsandersjr has been there, so we’ve decided to keep on stepping! #CoachPrime coming to a stadium sold out soon. @welloffforever .”

Deion Sanders is expected to return to Boulder ahead of the Buffaloes’ season opener on August 29.
