In his career, Moss faced something far tougher than any defensive back he went head-to-head with. In 2024, doctors found a cancerous mass in his bile duct. It forced him to undergo a six-hour surgery to remove it. He would then have a stent placed in his liver and later faced both radiation and chemotherapy.
“I didn’t think I would ever be in a position like this, as healthy as I thought I was,” Moss said in December 2024. “All the prayers, the well wishes, I really felt that, my family felt that. … As soon as I get healthy to get back out with guys, I will be on set. … Hopefully, I can be with you guys soon. My goal is to get back on television with my team.”
After being forced to miss the final two months of last year, he made his return to Sunday NFL Countdown.
Saturday marked one year since Randy Moss underwent surgery for bile duct cancer. The Hall of Fame wideout celebrated the anniversary with a post on Instagram.
“Been gone for a whole year off gram,” Moss wrote on Instagram. “This is the only pic tht i saved.1year til this day since my big surgery!TO ALL MY DOCTORS &PRAYER WARRIORS……THANK U#blessedman.”
