Hall of Famer Randy Moss takes leave from ESPN to focus on health

Hall of Fame wide receiver Randy Moss is stepping away from ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown for an extended period to focus on a personal health issue, according to a statement released by the network on Friday. 

Moss, 47, shared a video on Instagram Monday where he announced that he was dealing with a health concern.

“I just ask for all the prayer warriors to put their blessing hands on me and my family through these hard times. People were talking about my eyes last week,” Moss said from the Sunday NFL Countdown last Sunday. “I’m battling something, man, and it’s something internal, your boy is going to get through it. I got a great team of doctors and got a great family around me.” 

The Rand, W.VA. native first served as an analyst for Fox Sports 1’s Fox Daily Football Show shortly after his release from the San Francisco 49ers in 2014. He started as an analyst on ESPN’s Sunday and Monday NFL Countdowns in 2016 and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018.

Moss played 14 seasons and is ranked second all-time in touchdown catches with 156. He recorded 982 catches for 15,292 yards in his career with the Vikings, Raiders, Patriots, Titans and 49ers.
