per Megan:
In early March, the tumor had shrunk enough for another surgery. More tests earlier this week indicated stable results, just a couple small spots to monitor in scans in July.
This has made O’Brien a five-time cancer survivor, having endured at least 20 surgeries and five rounds of treatment in about seven years. Yet he’s still been working out throughout his latest bout.
“I’ve got to be ready to go for the summer because I am competing for a starting spot,” O’Brien said Wednesday. “So I kind of always had that as my end goal is just keeping my body in the best shape I could to get back playing football.”
