CU Buffs football head coach Deion Sanders and TV producer Tracey Edmonds have called off their engagement, according to an announcement posted on social media.

In a joint statement posted on Edmonds’ Facebook page Sunday night, Sanders and Edmonds said they have decided to move forward in life as friends.

“We have mutually decided that it is best for us to move forward in life as friends and have made this decision with love in our hearts, respect for each other, and appreciation for the time we’ve shared together,” Edmonds and Sanders wrote. “Please keep us in your prayers as we go through this transition.”

Sanders praised Edmonds in a comment on a since-deleted Instagram post of the announcement, calling her a “true blessing,” according to the New York Post. 

Sanders and Edmonds met at a movie premiere party in 2012 for a film Edmonds produced, according to People. They became engaged in 2019.

Edmonds founded her own production company in 1993 and was an executive producer of a reality TV series about Sanders’ life, Deion’s Family Playbook.
