NFL legend Randy Moss rings cancer bell at Charlotte’s Atrium Health

The Hall of Fame receiver announced his cancer diagnosis in 2024, which caused him to leave his role as an anaylst with ESPN.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — NFL legend Randy Moss celebrated the completion of his cancer treatment at Atrium Health.

Moss rang the bell to signal the accomplishment. He was joined by family members and Atrium Health staff.

“I want to thank everybody at this hospital for welcoming me to be a part of their family,” Randy said.

Moss announced he had cancer outside his bile duct in December 2024. The diagnosis caused him to depart from his longtime role as an analyst with ESPN. 

He had a procedure to put a stent in his liver on Thanksgiving after experiencing urine discoloration.

Moss said he was hospitalized for six days after the procedure. He said was being treated with radiation and chemotherapy at the Charlotte hospital.

“Let’s Moss cancer” — and he did just that! We join NFL Hall of Famer Randy Moss in celebrating a major milestone and ringing the bell, marking the completion of his cancer treatment at Atrium Health Levine Cancer in Charlotte. Throughout a journey filled with challenges, Randy met each moment with the same grit and determination that defined his legendary career. We’re honored to have walked alongside Randy and his family during this fight against bile duct cancer and even more proud to cheer him on as he shared his inspiring story on Good Morning America. “I want to thank everybody at this hospital for welcoming me to be a part of their family,” shared Randy after ringing the bell on his last day of cancer treatment. Thank you, Randy, for trusting us with your care. Your strength inspires us all.
