Hall of Famer Randy Moss is going to take an extended leave of absence from ESPN’s “NFL Countdown” to deal with a personal health issue, the network said.

“Pro Football Hall of Famer Randy Moss will step away from ‘NFL Countdown’ for an extended time to focus on a personal health challenge,” ESPN said in a statement. “He briefly addressed the matter at the start of the show on Dec. 1. For nearly a decade, Randy has been an invaluable member of the team, consistently elevating ‘Countdown’ with his insight and passion. He has ESPN’s full support, and we look forward to welcoming him back when he is ready.”

Moss’ exact diagnosis is unknown. Moss, 47, will not be replaced in the interim period. The previous Sunday, Moss addressed his issues on “Countdown,” while sporting sunglasses.

“I just wanted to let the viewers know that me and my wife, me and my family, we are battling something internally,” Moss said. “I have some great doctors around me. I couldn’t miss the show. I wanted to be here with you guys. I feel great.

“But if y’all see me with these Michigan turnover glasses that I have on, it’s not being disrespectful because I’m on television, man. I’m battling something. I need all the prayer warriors.”

Moss is considered one of the greatest receivers in NFL history. He is fourth all-time with 15,292 receiving yards in 14 seasons. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018.

He previously worked on both Sunday and “Monday Night Countdown,” but cut down by his own choice to just Sundays prior to last season.
