The flashy cornerback's debut with the Dallas Cowboys occurred in the team's eighth game of the 1995 season -- and on Sanders' former playing field. On Sunday, October 29, Sanders helped lead the Cowboys to a 28-13 victory over the Atlanta Falcons at the Georgia Dome. Sanders was unable to join the Cowboys until Week 9 because of arthroscopic surgery on an ankle he injured during the Major League Baseball season. Sanders played with the Cincinnati Reds and the San Francisco Giants in 1995 before signing with the Cowboys in September.
No. Deion's first year with the Cowboys was 1995 and Johnson left the Cowboys after the 1993 season.

It hasn't happened yet, although Deion Sanders came close. He won NFL championships with the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XXIX and with the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl XXX. But in his lone World Series appearance in 1992, Sanders and his Atlanta Braves teammates lost to the Toronto Blue Jays in six games.

Technically Bo Jackson started playing in the MLB first (in 1986), but he didn't play in the NFL until 1991. Deion Sanders, started playing in the MLB in 1989 and in the NFL in 1990. So to answer your question, Deion Sanders played professionally in two sports before Bo Jackson.

Deion Sanders played football at Florida State before being drafted into the NFL by the Atlanta Falcons in the first round of the 1989 NFL Draft. Sanders retired the first time in 2001, then came out of retirement for a while. He finally retired from football in January of 2006. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011.
Deion ran a 4.17 at the NFL Combine in 1989. 1990 was the first year that the timing was fully electronic. In reality, Deion was as fast as he wanted to be. In the context of actually playing the game, Jimmy Johnson once said that Deion was the only player he'd ever seen faster than the ball, hence Deion's reputation for being the fastest player of all time in pads.

Due to personal problems, Larry was not acknowledged when Deion requested his presence at a celebration in Ft. Myers. Coach Larry is from the Harlem Lakes section of Ft. Myers and now lives in Sarasota FL.
Yes, in the 1989 and 1990 seasons. The Yankees were the first MLB team he played for.
