Denver Broncos linebacker and defensive captain Alex Singleton returned to the field on November 30th, playing in his first game following his testicular cancer diagnosis and surgery on November 7th.
He was on the sidelines for the November 16th game against the Kansas City Chiefs, but even while recovering, Singleton continued to lead the Broncos’ defense as team captain. Just 19 days after his surgery, he returned to practice and played against the Washington Commanders just 23 days post-op.
He also represented the Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation through the My Cause, My Cleats program at Sunday night’s game.

Support the fight against testicular cancer
we are proud to be the leading testicular cancer organization since 2009
The Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation is committed to raising awareness and educating the public about the most common cancer in men ages 15-44, while providing lifesaving support to patients, survivors, and caregivers with compassion and care.
Awareness. Support. Survivorship.
Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation strives to encourage early detection through the practice of monthly self-exams and to remove the stigma and taboo associated with testicular cancer. Our mission is to help educate the public about testicular cancer, treatments, financial assistance, social support, survivorship and fundraising opportunities through our many programs.
Inspiration Behind Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation
October 2007, Jordan Jones was diagnosed with an aggressive form of testicular cancer (stage 4, medical reference 3c) at the early age of 13. It was during his treatment that it became apparent there was a lack of education and support for this disease.
Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation was formed October 2009. We are a nonprofit, compassionately dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by testicular cancer, educating others about the importance of awareness and early detection, and continuing to save lives.
