Deiondra Sanders and Jacquees announced last month that they are expecting a child, and received a whole lot of well-wishes as a result.

In an interview with PEOPLE published Wednesday (April 10), the football and baseball legend shared some surprising thoughts.

First off, he admitted that there's "not one thing" that excites him about becoming a first-time grandfather soon, and that he's still letting the news sink in. "I haven’t digested that whole thing yet," Eli Manning's co-signee told the publication concerning his daughter's pregnancy with Jacquees. "I’m proud of my baby that she’s at least waited until her thirties to give me this gift of life." Also, Deion Sanders revealed that his top priority is to make sure that "she’s straight emotionally and psychologically as well."
