Randy Moss has opened up about his recent cancer battle, sharing that he can't wait to get back to his sports commentator duties.
The NFL Hall of Famer has spent a lot of his post-playing career as a pundit for ESPN, but was forced off the air last year when he had to undergo surgery around Thanksgiving to remove a cancer mass between his pancreas and liver.
However, Moss is ready to make his grand return and spoke to TMZ about it, saying that he "missed" his NFL Countdown crew.
"Man, I look forward to [coming back]. I missed my crew. Greenie, Alex, Teddy," he said, before jokingly jabbing another of his co-hosts. "I really didn't miss Rex Ryan much because he got on my nerves. So, Rex, if you're hearing this, I am coming back, so scoot over."
He continued: "In all honesty, we have a great group of guys that I work with that I tremendously missed for two months and ESPN accepted me back with open arms ... Man, I just can't wait for week one to get back with the crew and talk football."
When Moss revealed his diagnosis last year, he told his Instagram followers that he had "been battling something internal" and asked for "all the prayer warriors to put their blessing hands" on him and his family through "these hard times."
In his chat with TMZ, Moss explained that his cancer scare was "an emotional rollercoaster," but that he was very thankful for the support from his friends — such as Michael Jordan — his ESPN family, football fans and more.
"I thank everybody for their love and their prayers. I really felt everything. I felt all of it," he said.
Speaking on the cancer treatment itself, Moss said: "Just being able to experience that was nothing I wish on any man or any human being, but for the fact that God took me through it and brought me out of it back healthy, being able to be back with my family, great support system and some great doctors around me, it was an emotional roller coaster, but the people I met along the way, I'm a blessed, man."
