It's an emotional super Sunday for Randy Moss.
NFL legends and ESPN analysts who left the network after undergoing cancer surgery two months ago have returned to the “postseason NFL countdown” between the Chiefs and Eagles during Super Bowl 2025, with ESPN welcome back video After playing it, I shed tears. Wishes have been made by Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, Justin Jefferson and others.
Moss, 47, shed tears after the video ended and sat in the middle of Mike Greenberg, Rex Ryan, Alex Smith and Teddy Bruski to wipe away tissues.
“You already know it's a big crybaby here,” Moss said. “It was tough, but I have a lot of love and a lot of people who believe in me.”
Moss said his goal is to be at Super Bowl 2025 after he announced in December that he was a “cancer survivor” who was removed from the bile duct between his liver and pancreas.
“I felt all the prayers that went there,” Moss said at the time. “You pray for warriors, all my teammates. I saw you hope you guys tweeting to me. All prayers. All wishes.”
Moss, who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018, receives the second-second touchdown in NFL history (156) and the fourth receiving yard (15,292).
He's been rocky for two years for the Raiders after spending seven outstanding seasons with the Vikings.
Moss then joined the Patriots, energizing his career with Tom Brady, setting up a single-season NFL record in 2007 with 23 touchdowns.
He joined ESPN in 2016 after starting his television career with Fox Sports.
