This is quite scary.

Lucky they found it. Hopefully they found it early enough to get the situation under control.

I heard the trade was cancelled due to Harrison's physical, but I didn't know that a brain tumor was involved. That's unexpected.

Here's wishing him the best.

The guys on ESPN radio are referring to it as the best trade in the NFL. Without the trade, he doesn't get a physical. Without the physical, it delays when he finds out he has a tumor. It got caught early enough to be treatable. I like the good news stories.
