Chris Mortensen, battling cancer, 'a huge part of our camp,' Archie Manning says
 

THIBODAUX -- ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen was diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer earlier this year, and the Manning family is honoring their longtime friend at the Manning Passing Academy with a special wristband that all 1,250 campers have along with counselors and staffers.

"Chris Mortensen has been a huge part of our camp. He's our friend," former New Orleans Saints quarterback Archie Manning said Friday.

I'm a cancer survivor. It's a tough battle but modern medicine is saving lives every day. Good luck. You are one of my favorites Mort. Hurry back.
