Great for him. Hope he can make it big in the NFL even if he isn't on the Fins.

Great for him I hope he returns to form, and makes it to the NFL he deserves it.

Happy to hear he is fully recovered. It will be interesting to see if he can return to his previous athletic ability. He was a great player before being diagnosed.

Loved this guy before his hiatus. I have a feeling he'll be back with a vengeance next year.
