Rookie New York Giants Mark Herzlich was on top of the world last weekend - starting for the very first time.
But Two years ago, Herzlich was facing a much bigger challenge than winning a football game - he was diagnosed with bone cancer.
"My doctor at the time had told me not only would I never play football again, I'd probably never be able to run again," Herzlich said.
Herzlich had been an All American linebacker at Boston College, a fierce competitor on the field and off.
"I made a goal in my mind," he said. "It was that I was going to beat the cancer and come back and play football."
