Colin Cowherd Explains Health Scare As Reason For Unexpected Hiatus From “The Herd”

Colin Cowherd fans everywhere (myself included) were wondering why the talk show host hasn’t been on his post hosting “The Herd” for the past two days. After all, two of the biggest days of the year for sports talk are the days after the Super Bowl. On Tuesday night, Cowherd provided an update to his fans.

He was dealing with chest pain, and a blood clot has been discovered near Cowherd’s lung.

Colin Cowherd explains that he was out to dinner when he felt a pain near his chest. He was rushed to the hospital by his friend. At first, Colin thought he had contracted the COVID-19 virus. After tests were done, the hospital found a blood clot.

According to Colin Cowherd, he still needs to go through some more testing in order to figure out why this clot might have showed up.

Fans have been giving Cowherd get well soon wishes on social media.

Nick Wright has stepped in on “The Herd” in Colin Cowherd’s absence. From the sounds of it, Colin will need to get his health in order before he returns to daytime TV.

Here’s hoping Colin Cowherd gets well soon. Daily sports talk will certainly be less entertaining without him.
