Saints TE Foster Moreau could join OTAs despite diagnosis

METAIRIE, La. -- New Orleans Saints coach Dennis Allen said there's "absolutely" a chance that newly signed tight end Foster Moreau participates in OTAs in two weeks.

Moreau, who has been undergoing treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma, signed with the Saints last week after briefly stepping away from football earlier in the spring. He was diagnosed in March after the Saints medical staff noticed potential symptoms of the disease while conducting Moreau's physical during a free agency visit.

Allen said everything since that day has only been positive considering the circumstances. Moreau was able to jump back into football just six weeks after a potentially life-changing diagnosis.
