He is best known for making the NFL after surviving cancer while a star football player for Boston College University

Mark Herzlich Jr. is a former professional football player and current sports commentator, best known for his time as a linebacker in the National Football League (NFL). Born on September 1, 1987, Herzlich's journey to the NFL was marked by both athletic excellence and personal resilience. He played college football for the Boston College Eagles, where he quickly established himself as a standout defensive player. In 2008, he was named the ACC Defensive Player of the Year, showcasing his ability to dominate on the field with his tackling, leadership, and football IQ.

Herzlich's career took a dramatic turn in 2009 when he was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer.

After undergoing extensive treatment, including chemotherapy and surgery, he made a remarkable comeback to the Boston College football team in 2010.
