Former Las Vegas Raiders tight end Foster Moreau revealed Wednesday afternoon that he has been diagnosed with cancer.
He learned of the diagnoses following a physical when the New Orleans Saints medical team told him.
“Through somewhat of a miraculous process, this Free Agency period has been life changing for me. During a routine physical conducted by the Saint’s medical team down in New Orleans, I’ve come to learn that I have Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and will be stepping away from football at this time to fight a new opponent: Cancer. I’m grateful for the support and thankful for people who have stood firm with me. There hasn’t been a single step I’ve taken without hundreds of people lighting the path before me, and I will continue to seek their guidance. That being said, I’ll go kick this thing’s ass and get back to doing what I love! AMDG!” Foster wrote on Twitter.

Honestly was a little bummed that Foster Moreau wasn’t gonna be back with the raiders but free agency saved his life with these physicals & it’s definitely a blessing in disguise. Raider for life in my book & hope he beats cancer soon rather than later!
