Video: Ron Rivera Exits Final Cancer Treatment

Published|Updated

Washington Football Team coach Ron Rivera has been undergoing treatment for squamous cell cancer in his lymph nodes, discovered last July. Rivera, who has not missed a game amidst his battle, completed his final treatment today. The victory lap was sweet:




This is a big Monday victory for Rivera, whose team shellacked the Cowboys on Sunday. While they are just 2-5, they are only a half-game behind the 2-4-1 Eagles for first place in the NFC East.

Regardless of the game and NFC East standings, it's great to see Rivera in good health and good spirits.
