Retired football star Randy Moss has been privately battling an undisclosed medical issue.
“Me and my wife and my family, we are battling something internally,” Moss, 47, said during the Sunday, December 1, broadcast of ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown. “You know, I have some great doctors around me. I couldn’t miss the show, I wanted to be here with you guys.”
He added, “I feel great, but if you see me with these Michigan Turnover glasses that I have on, it’s not being disrespectful ‘cause I’m on television. I’m battling something [and] I need all the prayer warriors. God bless you and thanks for the prayers.”
