Aug 09, 2013. Two decades ago, Deion Sanders did something that no other athlete has ever done before and that is play in a professional baseball and football game all in a matter of 24 hours. As a member of the Atlanta Braves, Deion played in Game 4 of the 1992 NLCS on a Saturday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Sanders signed a six-year, $35.7 million contract with the Detroit Lions in 1997. That deal included an $11 million signing bonus. Within two years, the Hall of Famer had retired at the age of 30. He was coming off a 1,400-yard performance with Detroit the previous season.
