Pro Football Hall of Famer and ESPN NFL analyst Randy Moss will return to the network’s ‘NFL Countdown’ show on Sunday after taking an extended leave of absence when he was diagnosed with cancer.
ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter made the announcement on social media Saturday night. The show will air live from New Orleans ahead of Super Bowl 59.
In December, the 47-year-old Moss said he was ‘battling something internal’ and asked for prayers after concerned viewers wondered about his health after he appeared on camera with yellowish eyes.
Weeks later, Moss said he was recovering from surgery to treat cancer that was found outside of his bile duct between his pancreas and liver, adding that he spent six days in the hospital after the procedure.
Moss has been on ‘Sunday NFL Countdown’ since 2016, and before that played 14 seasons in the NFL with the Minnesota Vikings, Oakland Raiders, New England Patriots, Tennessee Titans and San Francisco 49ers.
