So just how rich is Deion Sanders? Celebrity dot money has estimated that Deion’s net worth grosses over 40 million dollars, earned mostly from his careers in football and baseball. However, he is retired from professional sport now, and works as an NFL Network analyst.
Deion Sanders was a high school student who successfully played football, basketball and baseball, being credited an All-State letterman in all three sports. At Florida State University he also starred at football, baseball and on the track. In 1989 Deion Sanders began his baseball career in the MLB; during his career in this sport, Deion added enormously to his net worth as he played successively for the New York Yankees, Atlanta Braves, Cincinnati Reds, San Francisco Giants and Cincinnati Reds again before retiring in 2001. Deion played in the position of outfielder, left fielder or centre fielder, and in 1992 – the year the Braves made the World Series, but lost - he was named NL Triples Champion; he ultimately played 641 games.
However, Deion Sanders’ career as a football player was even more successful, and Sanders significantly increased the overall amount of his net worth when playing in the NFL. Deion started his professional football career alongside baseball in 1989, when he was selected by the  Atlanta Falcons in the NFL Draft, and with whom he played from 1989 to 1993. He then played successively for the San Francisco 49ers in 1994, Dallas Cowboys from 1995 to 99, Washington Redskins in 2000, and the Baltimore Ravens in 2004 to 2005 - he ‘retired’ for three years between 2001 and 2003.

Deion generally played in the position of cornerback, but also wide receiver, and was a great return specialist. Of course he has been inducted into the Pro-Football Hall of Fame, as of 2011.

In 2004, Deion worked as a coach of the women basketball team Dallas Fury. Currently, Deion Sanders works as an NFL Network analyst, this way continuing to increase his net worth, but in 2012 founded the Prime Prep Academy Charter School and has since also coached at the school.
