Alex Singleton capped his emotional NFL return on Sunday night with a game-saving play for the Denver Broncos in his first outing since undergoing cancer surgery.
The 31-year-old linebacker, who had an emergency op to remove a cancerous tumor from one of his testicles earlier this month, was back in action for Denver against the Washington Commanders just weeks on from his major procedure.
And with the Broncos leading 20-17, Singleton produced a clutch deflection to deny Commanders tight end Zach Ertz what would have been a huge catch in the dying minutes of the fourth quarter.
Singleton shocked the NFL on November 10 when he announced that he had been under the knife just hours after playing in his team's Thursday Night Football win over the Las Vegas Raiders.
He missed a big win over the Kansas City Chiefs on November 16, but was able to make a remarkable return just 23 days on from his surgery.
