Thread: Sources: Jerome Harrison has tumor

As Philadelphia Eagles doctors were giving newly acquired running back Jerome Harrison his physical, they discovered a brain tumor that nullified a trade with the Detroit Lions, according to two league sources.

The trade might have actually saved Harrison's life, the sources said. Without the deal being made, Harrison would not have undergone a physical. The tumor is now being treated, according to sources.

Harrison could not be reached for comment.

just read that, a brain tumor. Wow he was lucky that is was traded and they found it. Here's is to a full and speedy recovery!

Wow....that's pretty scary for him. Glad they found it and can start treating it. Good luck to him!

Glad he got his Cat Scanned and they are getting it taken care of.
