      "he made sure to issue a heartfelt statement thanking teammates, coaches and fans for the thousands of get-well messages he’d received in the aftermath, writing on Instagram:

      “I had THOUSANDS of messages from my family, friends, fans, agents, coaches, teammates…—I simply had messages from EVERYONE. I dropped the phone on the bed and with a big SMILE on my face, the first thing I could say was “God, how blessed I am.” Maybe it’s because it’s only after going through something like this that you realize the love that surrounds us.”
