In a sobering and shocking tweet Wednesday evening, Las Vegas Raiders free agent tight end Foster Moreau announced he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Moreau, who turns 26 in May, wrote that the diagnosis was discovered when he had a routine physical during a visit with his hometown New Orleans Saints over the weekend. The LSU product was considering signing with the Saints, who just signed his former Las Vegas teammate and close friend, Derek Carr, who was releases by the Raiders this offseason.
Now, Moreau said he will step away to battle the cancer.
