"This was not an easy task. … It was dynamic. It was tough. It wasn't a cakewalk. It wasn't easy," Sanders said, noting that he dropped 25 pounds. "That was a fight, but we made it." Doctors discovered the tumor during a routine vascular exam.
As for how the procedure will affect his ability to coach, he said: "I can't pee like I used to… I depend on Depends. … I'm making a joke out of it, but it is real. It is real. It is real. If you see a port-a-potty on the sideline, it is real, I'm just telling you. You're going to see one at practice, on the sideline [in games].''
