Randy Moss revealed he had cancer and support poured in from the football world

It's been a scary few weeks for the legendary Randy Moss, and we finally know what he's been dealing with lately. In an Instagram Live post from his personal account on Saturday, Moss revealed he has been recently receiving treatment for cancer.

Moss said that doctors found cancer outside his bile ducts, which was affecting his liver function. That may have led to the confusion of a previous erroneous report claiming the First-Ballot Hall of Fame receiver actually had liver cancer. Moss revealed that he underwent a six-hour procedure on Thanksgiving and that he's intermittently visited the hospital ever since.

The 47-year-old Moss will receive radiation treatments in the coming weeks, and he says he plans to return to ESPN "soon."

Most importantly, Moss described himself as a "cancer survivor" as he appears to be through the worst of this awful news. Fittingly, he unveiled an awesome slogan for his cancer fight, "Let's Moss Cancer," a reference to Moss embarrassing cornerbacks throughout his career by simply jumping over the top of them.

Indeed. Let's Moss Cancer, everyone.

With Moss's cancer news now public, support rang in from the football world on Twitter:
