Bo Jackson, who played both professional football and baseball, revealed his cancer diagnosis for the first time while appearing on The Dan Patrick Show. Jackson was promoting his podcast Bo Knows Men’s Health when he shared the news that he had his prostate removed.

“I am a cancer survivor,” the 63-year-old told listeners. “I had my prostate taken out. And this is coming from somebody that a lot of men around the country look up to. If I can talk about it, we should talk about it as men.”
