NFL’s Foster Moreau Reveals Cancer Diagnosis, Discovered On Visit W/ Saints

Moreau explained on his Twitter page that he had been down in Louisiana talking with New Orleans brass about potentially signing on for the 2023 season … when Saints medical personnel discovered he had Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a type of cancer that attacks the body’s immune system.

The former Las Vegas Raiders tight end called the news “life changing” … and he said he will now have to step away from football to fight the disease.

The 25-year-old, though, vowed to beat it … writing in his statement, “I’ll go kick this thing’s ass and get back to doing what I love!”

The news sucks for Moreau … the former fourth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft had just played out his entire rookie contract, and seemed to be in line for a big payday in free agency.

But, he appeared upbeat in his social media statement nonetheless … telling all of his fans he has a huge support group that’ll help him on his road to recovery.
