From ESPN:

The surgery was a Whipple procedure, Moss said. The operation involves removing the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, the gallbladder and the bile duct, according to the Mayo Clinic.

“I didn’t think I would ever be in a position like this, as healthy as I thought I was,” Moss said.

Moss said he will undergo radiation and chemotherapy.

“All the prayers, the well wishes, I really felt that, my family felt that,” Moss said, wearing a gray hoodie with the words “Team Moss.”
