Deion Sanders does Depends ad for adult diaper after bladder surgery
Colorado coach Deion Sanders did his first advertisement for the Depend adult diaper brand after having his cancerous bladder removed in May.
But it's not just the latest sponsorship deal for Sanders, who also is seen in advertisements for Blenders eyewear, Aflac insurance and California Almonds.
This one is about his personal health.

"I wasn't joking! I truly DEPEND on @Depend," Sanders said on Instagram Friday Aug. 22. "Ain't NO SHAME in taking care of yourself. NO SHAME in getting health screenings. And there certainly ain't NO SHAME in needing added protection or using Depend to stay in the game. That's not weakness — that's WINNING"
The ad shows packages of the underwear underneath his Nike shoes.
The company that owns the brand confirmed to USA TODAY Sports in July that it has a parternship with Sanders. Depend often is associated with jokes about old age and embarrassing problems with incontinence. But Sanders has said he wants to take the shame out of it by discussing it openly and associating it with his personal fashion.
"I'm about to sexy 'em up," Sanders told former NFL receiver Michael Irvin in an interview posted July 28.
Sanders said after bladder surgery that "I truly depend on Depend. I cannot control my bladder."
After his bladder was removed, a neobladder was put in its place from his small intestine. It's led to changes with how he goes to the bathroom. Sanders talked about it with Irvin.
"You have to push through your stomach and force the pee out," Sanders said. "Like you can't just pee, and when you feel like you gotta go pee, you need to pee or you gonna start leaking."
This product helps him deal with that.
