There was some sad news for the Denver Broncos as one of their valued coaching staff members, Zack Grossi, had to take a step back from work due to an aggressive form of cancer. Grossi, who specializes in the team's passing game and has been with them for three years now, recently started chemotherapy after being diagnosed with a yolk sac tumor in his chest.
The 35-year-old coach shared in a heartfelt message with the team's website that he had been feeling off for the past few months and was having trouble breathing. After visiting the Broncos' medical staff, he underwent several tests and was eventually informed about the tumor in his chest. Grossi's official diagnosis was a Yolk Sac Tumor, which can be scary, but also has a high success rate in treatment. He has already started his chemotherapy and will undergo surgery to remove the remaining tumor in a few months.
Grossi compared his approach to fighting cancer with preparing for a game. He will stay focused and take it one day at a time, trusting the process and following the guidance of his doctors. In the meantime, he will continue to work and grind, just like he does on the field. Grossi has been a valuable member of the Broncos' staff, primarily working with wide receivers, and has had experience at the college and NFL level before joining the team in 2022.
Head coach Sean Payton expressed his full support for Grossi in a statement, saying that the team stands by him and his family during this difficult time. He has no doubt that Grossi will fight like a true Bronco and can't wait to have him back on the staff. Grossi himself is unsure of when he will be able to return to work, but he is eager to get back to what he loves.
The coach also expressed his gratitude towards the Broncos' organization and the support he has received from them. From the owners to his colleagues and the medical staff, everyone has been there for him and his family, going above and beyond to show their love and support. Grossi feels lucky and blessed to have such a wonderful team behind him.
In the meantime, the Broncos are fully supporting Grossi as he begins his treatment and have even started a campaign called "Fight Like A Bronco" to show their solidarity. Grossi shared that he has found peace in knowing that he is not alone in his fight against cancer. The team will continue to update on his progress, and fans can also sign up for Broncos Insider to get all the latest news and analysis.
