LSU guy. The Saints were probably signing him.
Not now...

That's a really good question that I don't have an answer for.

I don't know if it matters in this disease, but maybe they caught it early? I hope so.

A terrible thing for such a young man.

NFL players have complete physicals at the combine and before camp every year. Any team contemplating signing a rookie that did not go through the combine or evaluating a free agent, does a complete physical.

The Saints internist, Dr. John Amoss, is the doc who caught Moreau's illness. Hopefully, they have pretty good luck with Hodgkins if caught early. Amoss also caught a heart condition on another free agent a few years ago, Jon Dorenbos. It probably saved the guy's life.

Amoss is an old LSU guy...
