Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw said Sunday he has been treated for two forms of cancer in the past year.

Bradshaw said on 鈥淔ox NFL Sunday鈥 that he was diagnosed with bladder cancer late last year and was treated at Yale University Medical Center, including surgery.

鈥淎s of today, I am bladder cancer free,鈥 Bradshaw said.

The 74-year-old then said he found a tumor in his neck earlier this year and it turned out to be a Merkel cell tumor, a rare form of malignant skin cancer. He was treated at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

鈥淔olks, I may not look my old self, but I feel like my old self,鈥 Bradshaw said. 鈥淚鈥檓 cancer free, I鈥檓 feeling great.鈥

Bradshaw played his entire career (1970-83) with the Pittsburgh Steelers and won four Super Bowls.
