Surprising fans watching Sunday’s NFL Countdown, Hall of Fame wide receiver and longtime ESPN analyst Randy Moss brought a pair of blue-tinted sunglasses to the table. Moss’s glasses may seem out of place, but Moss explained that a personal health matter advised them.
“I’m battling something internal,” Moss shared with viewers. “I have some great doctors around me, and I feel great. I just couldn’t miss the show—had to be here with y’all. But if you see me with these Michigan turnover glasses, it’s not disrespectful; it’s just what I’ve got to do right now.”
Prayers for NFL Legend Randy Moss 🙏
“You were talking about my eyes last week… I just want to let the viewers know that me and my wife, me & my family, we are battling something internally.”

While he didn’t elaborate on his condition, the charismatic straight-shooter reassured everyone that he was on top of it. He also used the moment to urge the audience to look after their health.
In a pre-show Instagram video, he said: ‘Y’all do your checkups, you get your bloodwork done, let’s work through it.’
“Throughout the week of the holidays, your boy has been battling something internally. I just ask for all the prayer warriors to put their blessed hands on me and my family through these hard times.”
Hoping everything is alright with Randy Moss 🙏

Randy Moss and Crew Keeping It Light-Hearted
The sunglasses sparked some light-hearted humor among his colleagues, with Adam Schefter dubbing them ‘Michigan turnover glasses’ – a play on the Wolverines’ win over rival Ohio State the day before. Even under difficult circumstances, Moss was still the awesome, fun-loving personality his fans love.
Moss is one of the most respected football analyst voices out there and has been a key figure on Sunday NFL Countdown since 2016. He has become a familiar fixture on ESPN’s coverage because of his ability to reach fans and peers alike.
