“Your Boy is a cancer survivor. As soon as I get healthy to get back out with you guys, I will be on set. Hopefully, I can be with you guys soon.” It was in December 2024 that the legendary Randy Moss took to Instagram to announce he had defeated cancer and would be back on TV soon. Well, the Hall of Famer kept his word and has returned to the NFL countdown. Before the show, some of his friends and colleagues shared some messages welcoming the Vikings legends back.
Among the many who shared a message for him was Pats legend and Moss’ former teammate Tom Brady. Brady said, “Welcome back, Randy. Sure, all the guys at the show have missed you, but we’ve all missed you as well. You’ve been a fixture on that show for a long time and you were a fixture on the field. And for as great as you were on the field and showing everybody the strength and resilience of how you performed over the course of your Hall of Fame career, you’ve impressed and inspired us more than anything in what you’ve done off the field.”
This is great: Randy Moss is back on TV today after being diagnosed with bile duct cancer—and he got a surprise welcome back from Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Justin Jefferson, Kevin Garnett, Jerry Rice and more.
