Deion Sanders' over-the-top former Texas mansion is now abandoned — and on the market for $5.5M
This property is ready for a comeback play. The Texas estate custom-built by NFL Hall of Famer Deion 'Prime Time' Sanders is back on the market — this time listed for $5.5 million, and in need of a serious revival. Constructed in 1999 at the height of Sanders' playing career, the nearly 30,000-square-foot mansion was designed to match his larger-than-life persona.

Home Flex Media / SWNS Set on what was once a 112-acre spread in the town of Prosper, roughly an hour north of Dallas, the home reflected Sanders' flair with towering ceilings, gleaming marble floors, and amenities that include a home theater, an indoor training field, a bowling alley and a basketball court. The residence also features nine bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and sweeping floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the 6 remaining acres of the original estate.

Though Sanders sold the property in 2014 — before the bulk of the land was parceled off and redeveloped into a subdivision called 'The Montclair' — his mansion remained untouched. It has sat vacant for over a decade. The home last changed hands in 2021 when a Frisco-based LLC purchased it at auction, reportedly intending to restore it for the owner's wife. Those plans never came to fruition. 23 A study. Home Flex Media / SWNS Advertisement 23 Amenities include a bowling alley, an indoor training pitch, a 14-car garage and a resort-style pool.

The re-listing comes as Sanders, now head football coach at the University of Colorado, is back in the spotlight amid coverage of his son Shedeur Sanders's unexpected tumble to the fifth round in this year's NFL Draft. 23 One of 11 bathrooms.

Frisco chef, attorney outraged after he was arrested, Tased by police at Love Field
Outrage is growing over the video of a Frisco-based personal chef detained by police at Love Field and then shot with a Taser. Michael Singleton usually loves going viral. He showcases his culinary skills daily for his 92,000 followers on Instagram. Last Friday at Dallas Love Field, as Singleton was about to fly to visit his sick mother, he was detained by plainclothes Dallas police officers. He begged people to record it, and they did. Video of incident goes viral "They are arresting me for the wrong reason," Singleton is heard saying in the video just before an officer fired a Taser gun. "I thought I was going to die that day I was Tased," said Singleton. "You have that feeling. I don't want anyone to have that feeling, but I had that feeling like I was dying." He said officers accused him of carrying drugs. They found none. "I called my name out because if anything happened to me, just not the police would know who I am," said Singleton. Singleton and lawyer claim civil rights violation Singleton said Dallas police violated his civil rights when he was about to board the flight to California. "At point-blank range, a Dallas police officer with his service weapon shot a Taser less than five inches away and struck Mr. Singleton in his heart," Singleton's lawyer, Robert Slater, said during a news conference. "We are here asking for common decency. We are asking for due process." Dallas officers, according to a statement, located Singleton for outstanding warrants. DPD said he resisted and refused to put his arms behind his back, and they say policy allows the use of a Taser in this situation to de-escalate an arrest. Slater said the video shows the use of force was not consistent with Dallas police policy, it was unnecessary and a violation of Singleton's rights.
