Minnesota Vikings linebacker Cameron Smith needs open-heart surgery and will be sidelined for the 2020 season.
“I found out I need open heart surgery to fix a bicuspid aortic valve that I was born with,” Smith posted. “Although this will unfortunately end my 2020 season”.
“I found this out after I tested positive for COVID and had to have further testing done as protocol. The Lord works in mysterious ways, but I could really feel him on this one!”.
“By no means am I ready to be done playing football, there is still so much more I want to accomplish on the field,”.
