Broncos' Nik Bonitto had an unforgettable message after learning about teammate Alex Singleton's cancer diagnosis

Teammate and superstar edge rusher Nik Bonitto weighed in on the devastating update, commending Singleton for what he was able to do on the field.

"Him still being able to go out there and help us win, it was really amazing," Bonitto said.

Only a few inside the building fully knew what Singleton was going through.

"It was pretty crazy, there was probably a select few people that knew, probably only the guys in this group," Bonitto said. "I'm happy he had successful surgery and hopefully the recovery goes well."

Singleton has battled through injuries throughout his career

The talented linebacker has started every game for the Broncos this season and has totaled 89 combined tackles, a forced fumble, and three tackles for loss.

Singleton suffered a season-ending ACL tear in the 2024 season, once again playing through the tear. His resilience is unmatched, and it's something that was loudly praised by his teammates.

It's another chapter in Singleton's story of toughness and perseverance. From battling through injuries to now fighting cancer, he's once again proven what it means to leave everything on the field for his team.
