NFL legend Randy Moss has sparked significant public interest and concern. During an appearance on ESPN's "Sunday NFL Countdown," Moss revealed that he and his family are "battling something internally," although he refrained from disclosing specific details about his condition . This lack of specificity has led to widespread speculation among fans and analysts alike. In a poignant moment, Moss requested prayers, emphasizing the importance of support during challenging times .
Moss, 47, shared some information about the illness in an Instagram post Sunday morning from the set of ESPN’s NFL Countdown where Moss is one of the co-hosts.
“This is message for all men,” Moss said. “Throughout the week of the holidays, your boy has been battling some internal. I just ask for all the prayer warriors to put their blessing hands on me and my family through these hard times.”
Moss indicated the illness is why he’s been wearing sunglasses on the ESPN set.
“Like I said, I’m battling something and it’s something internal and your boy is going to get through it,” Moss said. “I got a great team of doctors and a great team around me. All you men get your check-ups and get your blood work done.”
In the video, Moss added that ESPN insider Adam Schefter called the pair of blue-tinted sunglasses "Michigan turnover glasses" — a timely joke in the wake of Michigan's win over Ohio State on Saturday.
Moss did not provide more information about the illness or cause behind the glasses, but encouraged people to check in with their doctors. "Y'all do your checkups, get your bloodwork done, and we'll work through it," he said.
