Last season, he returned to join the usual crew of Mike Greenberg, Rex Ryan, Alex Smith and Tedy Bruschi for Super Bowl LIX.
The network welcomed him with open arms and an emotional tribute, and fans rallied to support him throughout the entire process.
Last December, the 48-year-old revealed his diagnosis during an Instagram Live session.
He had surgery shortly afterward to treat the cancer, which was found in the bile duct between his liver and pancreas.
He revealed that he had to have a stent inserted into his liver because of some complications, and he would subsequently have chemotherapy and radiation treatment.
While he hasn’t shared many updates regarding his condition, the fact that he’s healthy enough to rejoin the ESPN program on a full-time basis is telling.
As one of the greatest wide receivers the game has ever seen, Moss is among the most popular figures in sports.
Hopefully, he will be healthy for years to come.
