Randy Moss health update revealed as NFL legend continues to battle cancer

Randy Moss’ business partner has given a rare update on the NFL legend’s condition as he continues to battle bile duct cancer.

Moss made the shock announcement about his health a month ago, appearing on an Instagram Live video alongside his sons to tell fans he had undergone a six-hour surgery and could not walk without a cane.

Alongside his TV work with ESPN, Moss is also co-owner of Crisspi’s Chicken, and his business partner has spoken about how the 47-year-old is getting on.

‘He was in great spirits when I talked to him,’ Brittany Tolliferreo told TMZ. ‘I haven’t noticed any change in him, he’s pretty consistent with his personality.

‘He’s a smart and strong businessman and he wants everything to be successful and continue to grow.’

Such is that desire, Tolliferreo even revealed he has hinted at a visit to the chain’s new Miami location on opening day next week.

The location opens on January 18, and the co-owner said of Moss’ potential arrival to cut the rope: ‘You never know with Randy, he’s full of surprises… but he has given us his full support with this Miami location.’

Speaking about his cancer battle in December, Moss said: ‘I’ve told y’all over the last couple of weeks about me battling something internally, and ya boy is a cancer survivor.’

He then revealed: ‘I did have cancer, they found it in the bile duct, right between the pancreas and the liver, and the cancer was sitting right outside the bile duct.

‘So my doctors went in, I had six hours’ surgery, and for a lot of you guys wondering, you can Google it. I had a Whipple procedure. The best doctor in the United States, Dr [John] Martinie, I am forever grateful.’ 

Moss later went on to tell his fans that he is ‘nursing his way back’, revealing: ‘It’s going to be a tough road with some chemo and some radiation.’

Over the last month, the Minnesota Vikings legend has not been seen in public, but his ESPN colleagues and players around the league have regularly paid tribute to him.
