The Denver Broncos posted on X Monday afternoon that inside linebacker Alex Singleton had undergone surgery for testicular cancer last Friday, which had been diagnosed last week.

Singleton had just played the night before in the prime-time matchup with the Raiders, where No. 49 was a big part of the defensive dominance, logging nine total tackles.

“Our No. 1 priority is Alex’s health and well-being,” the team posted.
