Moreau explains in this article how he's able to be back on the field and ready to go. This also explains why the Saints didn't feel the need to reach for a TE in the rookie draft knowing Moreau is already a proven commodity and would be available almost immediately.


From link above:

Moreau revealed that he had a rare cell type of Hodgkin's Lymphoma called NLPHL, or Nodular Lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's Lymphoma, referred to as 'Alphabet Soup'. Moreau said that it shows up in 3-5 percent in all Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and is slow-growing and non-aggressive, but is still cancer. What that meant for Moreau is that he didn't have to undergo chemotherapy or radiation, but took medicine that targeted the specific type of cancer he has.

Well that explains how he can be back on the field in such a short time. Chemo and radiation kicks the living daylights out of most everybody so that would have been a whole different story.

Yeah it would be dang hard to root against a guy like that. Love the fact that he really seems to be in NOLA and play for the Saints.
