James Van Der Beek Lookin' Good In Varsity Blues Jersey As His Wife Shares Update Amid Cancer Battle

James Van Der Beek is slipping back into his old jersey amid his health battle!

The 48-year-old actor — who is battling stage three colorectal cancer — took to Instagram on Monday to post a video of himself rocking a blue and white jersey, featuring the name Moxon on the back. Fans know the shirt is a reference to his character Jonathan “Mox” Moxon from the 1999 film Varsity Blues. And he put it on again for a good cause. James announced in the caption that he is helping to raise money for his cancer treatment and other families going through the same experience, writing:

“By popular demand! My favorite jersey. Maybe it was all fun plays we got run in the football sequences for the away games… but I always loved putting on the varsity whites. Last year when I released the Blues jersey, I was blown away by the love and support I received from all of you. It has meant more than I can ever express. I hope you enjoy this one as much as the original. For me, every jersey I sign is a magical full-circle moment.”

He then expressed his gratitude for all the support amid his health struggle:

“Thank you — for the love, the prayers, the support, and for making this jersey mean something far bigger than a movie. Endlessly grateful for all of you.”
