Pittsburgh running back James Conner said Monday he is cancer-free, six months after he was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma.
Conner took to Twitter to share the good news:
God is AMAZING. Just got the call that my body is clean of cancer!!! Been a long road but God had my back. Thanks everyone who said prayers!
The former ACC Player of the Year finished his 12th and final chemotherapy treatment May 10. His cancer fight drew national attention: Conner received well wishes from around the country, and he made an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in April to share his story.
