<\/p>\nTravis Kelce brutally snubbed girlfriend Taylor Swift and, instead, named an ex-NFL star as his dream guest for ‘New Heights’.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The podcast, which is co-hosted by Kelce and his NFL legend brother Jason Kelce, has soared in popularity since the Kansas City Chiefs star’s romance with Swift.<\/p>\n
Ever since Kelce and Swift got together, listeners and fans of ‘New Heights’ have been keen for an episode with the pop star as a guest.<\/p>\n
However, it appears that they’ll have to wait a while longer after Kelce, instead, named Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders as the the guest he wants ‘so bad’.<\/p>\n
Speaking on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast, Kelce admitted: ‘Man, I want to get Deion Sanders on so bad.<\/p>\n
‘I want to talk to him about the football and baseball world that he was in in the late ’80s, early ’90s, and just chop it up.<\/p>\n

‘I played every sport imaginable growing up and I always wanted to be one of those guys that played both, a two-sport professional athlete’.<\/p>\n
The Sanders name has dominated headlines in recent weeks after Shedeur Sanders – son of Deion – suffered one the most shocking slides in NFL draft history.<\/p>\n
Sanders was tipped by many – his own father included – to be a top-five draft pick but was eventually selected by Cleveland in the fifth round with the 144th overall pick.<\/p>\n
Shortly after being drafter, Shedeur was asked about\u00a0his father Deion’s mystery illness, which has caused him to stay at his home in Texas in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
‘I don’t know what’s going on. I’m here not to talk about pops and them. I’m here for the quarterback of the Cleveland Browns,’ Sanders said.<\/p>\n
‘I’m focused on learning this playbook and everything I got to do to be the most successful quarterback I can be, be the best teammate I can be. Outside of that, I don’t really have any thoughts or opinions on anything outside this game.’<\/p>\n
Last month,\u00a0the coach’s eldest son – Deion Sanders Jr. – appeared in a\u00a0YouTube\u00a0livestream from the home in Canyon, Texas where he said the former NFL cornerback was in his room and ‘feeling well’.<\/p>\n
‘He’ll tell y’all soon enough what he going through, what he went through,’ Deion Jr. said on the livestream.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\nSanders\u00a0has been absent from the University of Colorado’s camps due to a medical issue<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
As for when he may return to Colorado, Deion Jr. said, ‘When we get back in Boulder, I don’t know.<\/p>\n
Sanders also recently cancelled a speaking engagement at The Foundation for Sickle Cell Research due to an ‘unavoidable last-minute scheduling change.’<\/p>\n
In recent years, Sanders has been having multiple health problems – especially related to circulation.<\/p>\n
Back in 2021, Sanders underwent multiple surgeries to his left foot to remove blood clots.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the now-57-year-old had two toes on that foot amputated.<\/p>\n
In 2023, issues due to blood clots led to Sanders skipping a Pac-12 Conference media event in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
