Terry Bradshaw

The former Steelers quarterback and current Fox analyst was given two cancer diagnoses in a four-month span.

The results of the test revealed he had a Merkel cell tumor in the left side of his neck — a diagnosis that shook him considerably more than his bladder cancer. Bradshaw said he initially received an MRI after experiencing nerve pain in the right side of his neck and shoulder. 2 he was diagnosed with bladder cancer and Merkel cell carcinoma in the previous year. Bradshaw told Smith that his bladder cancer was found early. It also notes that it is more prevalent in older people, though those with long-term sun exposure or a weakened immune system are also more susceptible to it. “In November (2021), I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. Most bladder cancers are diagnosed at an early stage, when the cancer is highly treatable. So I had that surgery done at MD Anderson in Houston." During today's show, Terry Bradshaw shared that he has been battling cancer over the past year. So I appreciate your prayers and your concerns," he said. The concern began in earnest when Bradshaw, 74, was seen struggling to catch his breath in a Sept. He turned a Hall of Fame playing career, at both the college and pro levels, into an equally impressive NFL broadcasting career.

Bradshaw’s career Super Bowl rating of 112.8 is good enough to earn him the fourth-highest career rating in the game’s storied history and is substantially ahead of Brady, who is eighth on the list at 97.7. When the endless coverage turns to Super Bowl history, he might get a mention of having played, but it will only be in passing. Bradshaw never posted a quarterback rating below 101.9 in the Super Bowl and outdueled Roger Staubach in perhaps the greatest game ever played in Super Bowl XIII, posting 318 yards and four touchdowns. But it is not the regular season; it is Super Bowl week, and this week, Terry Bradshaw is the king of Pittsburgh quarterbacks. Bradshaw would play until 1983, but this was his final game on the big stage, and he went out as the first quarterback to win four Super Bowls.
