Jerome Harrison Has A Brain Tumor

[ravensfan160]

That is apparently why his trade to the Eagles for Ronnie Brown was voided. It looks like the decision to trade him may have saved his life because the tumor was discovered during the required physical to complete the trade.

Sad news. Just had a family member who found out he has a brain tumor, and its just terrible. .

Get well Harrison.

Imagine if he wasn't traded? They might not have found it in time.

I pray he is able to recover quickly.

Nothing to take lightly here....my old man is still suffering with Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy and its not cool at all!

Here's to a (speedy) recovery!

This is one of the scary parts of life - diseases that sneak up on you or you don't discover until it's too late. Hopefully Harrison gets through it alright, that physical/attempted trade may have been a blessing in disguise.

Wow. Get well soon Jerome!

[Natty Boh]

Yeah I heard. Best wishes to him.

[RavensAllTheWay]

Very sad, and best wishes in recovery.

[ravensdfan]

Wow. Have to be glad they tried to trade him at this point.

Get well, man. Best wishes to you and your family.

Wow, I hope he gets well soon!

Just heard on TheFan that he underwent surgery today and his prognosis looks good... he should be able to play next year.
