Saints backup quarterback Jake Haener told reporters Friday that he has been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer.
Haener said he learned of the diagnosis just before the start of training camp, adding that he believes the diagnosis itself was fairly rare. He went to doctors to have a bump on his face checked out and received the news.
Haener also added that the cancer isn’t considered life-threatening at this time.
The 25-year-old is headed into his second NFL season after seeing no time as a rookie last fall. The Saints selected Haener out of Fresno State in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
