Three days after Pro Football Hall of Fame and former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Randy Moss announced his cancer diagnosis, the Vikings paid tribute to Moss ahead of Monday Night Football. Prior to kickoff for the primetime game against the Chicago Bears, Minnesota's honorary captains Cris Carter and Jake Reed walked out for the coin toss holding a No. 84 Moss Vikings jersey.
As Carter and Reed walked out while holding Moss's jersey, Vikings PA announcer Alan Roach stated over the loudspeakers at U.S. Bank Stadium, "In honor of Randy Moss, and all those fighting cancer, let's Moss cancer."
