SCARY SITUATION: Blood clots discovered in lungs and legs of Browns WR Marquise Goodwin
Marquise Goodwin is one of the best human beings in the NFL and he needs our prayers right now. Yesterday, it was announced Goodwin has blood clots in his legs and lungs, according to the Cleveland Browns.
The veteran wide receiver said he began feeling discomfort in his legs and shortness of breath during team workouts this spring. A check-up revealed the clots.
“It was really alarming at first because I’ve experienced injury throughout my career, but it’s never been anything like this that could turn into something detrimental if it’s not taken care of,” he said.
“It was frightening at first, but now I’m at ease with it. I’ve prayed and just given it over to God,” he said. “The only thing I can control is my effort and attitude and how I approach each day moving forward.”
Goodwin was placed on the Non-Football Illness List. Please keep him in your prayers during this battle.
