FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — New England Patriots offensive lineman Nate Solder has disclosed that his infant son has cancer.
Solder, who earlier this year revealed that he was treated for testicular cancer, told a crowd at a charity event on Monday that his 3-month-old son, Hudson, has a form of kidney cancer.
Solder was the keynote speaker at The Gratitude Gala to benefit The Joe Andruzzi Foundation, named for the former Patriots lineman who also beat cancer.
The 6-foot 8-inch, 320-pound Solder said he went public about his son's illness to provide comfort and strength to other families undergoing to same thing.
