St. Jude patient and Denver Broncos’ fan Austin joined Andrew Siciliano on “Up to the Minute” today to announce some exciting news: Austin will join Commissioner Goodell onstage at AT&T Stadium to announce the Broncos’ Round 1 pick on Thursday, April 26. An aspiring NFL broadcaster, Austin, 17, from New Mexico, was diagnosed with oligoastrocytoma, a rare form of cancer, at the age of two and has been in remission since 2007. Today, as a junior in high school, Austin is an announcer for a sports radio show in his hometown and is an on-air personality and prep sports statistician for local ESPN radio in New Mexico.
