IRVINE, Cali - New Orleans Saints backup quarterback Jake Haener said he's been diagnosed with skin cancer.
The 25-year-old Haener did not disclose what type of cancer he is dealing with but said that it's rare to see it at his age.
"It's not going be like a life-threatening thing right now," said Haener, who was sporting a small bandage on his face during Friday's practice session.
Haener said he has a consultation with doctors on Aug. 1 to determine the next steps.
"I have to get a different procedure done on my face," he said.
