Larry Fitzgerald Sr. brought chaos to the football world after he revealed that Randy Moss was dealing with liver cancer.
Moss dropped a bombshell on fans when he announced on social media his decision to take a step back from his role as an ESPN analyst, citing the need to focus on personal matters.
Fans speculated about his health, but Moss never wavered to reveal what he was dealing with.
Larry Fitzgerald Sr., father of former Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald Jr., stirred the pot by tweeting claims of Moss being diagnosed with liver cancer.
That was clearly done without consent.
His son, a 2024 National Football Foundation Hall of Fame inductee, allegedly told his father he was wrong to share that information but has since deleted the tweet.

Randy Moss’ Son Rips Larry Fitzgerald Sr. For His Actions
Randy Moss’ son, Thaddeus, is piping hot mad that reports are now saying his father has been diagnosed with liver cancer.
Larry Fitzgerald Sr. was the reason for it, as he and Brett Favre both tweeted Tuesday that the elder Moss had been diagnosed with the disease.
“This is disgusting,” Thaddeus tweeted to Fitzgerald. Sr. “You have no right to try to make private matters public for the sake of engagement. I do not believe my father talks to you, so check your f–king sources.”
Responding directly to Fitzgerald Sr.’s tweet, Thaddeus clarified, saying, “This is not true. My father will address the world when he is ready to.”
Thaddeus wrote to Favre on X: “Brett, the support is appreciated, truly. This is not true. My father will address the world when he is ready to.”
Randy Moss did not reveal details of his ailment as he urged individuals to undergo blood testing and check-ups.
ESPN announced last Friday that Moss would be away “for an extended time to focus on a personal health challenge.”
