Jim Kelly Recovering From Surgery

It looks like former Buffalo Bills Quarterback Jim Kelly is recovering from jaw reconstruction surgery in New York City!

Jim's wife Jill Kelly posted on her Instagram that the surgery went well and Doctors were able to remove the cancer and complete the jaw reconstruction that they needed to do.

Surgery is complete. Thank GOD and the amazing team of doctors and nurses that took care of Jim today...and will continue to take care of him as he heads into a very significant time of recovery. #12 Can you see it? During pre-op the computer in our section wasn’t working so they had to get a new one. Then Jim says to me, “Did you see the computer? You should take a picture.” And so I did! As silly as it sounds, God gave us the #12 computer. And almost 12 hours of surgery later....#12 is now on the road to recovery. I’ll be posting more details soon, but wanted to say “THANK YOU” for praying and standing on the promises of God! We have a long road ahead, but we do not walk alone...the Lord goes before us and is with us...we will not fear. (Photos are from before surgery, just look at his smile. He is my inspiration and hero❤️) #KellyTough

Kelly had been cancer free since 2014 before announcing earlier this year that the cancer had returned.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Jim, Jill and the whole Kelly family.
