Tony Gonzalez, along with a half-dozen other tight ends and Super Bowl-winning coach and prostate cancer survivor Bruce Arians appear in \u201cRelax Your Tight End,\u201d<\/a> a Novartis\u00a0Super Bowl advertisement<\/a>\u00a0that urges early screening and use of the new blood test.<\/p>\n

Gonzalez, along with retired luminaries like Rob Gronkowski and Greg Olsen and two-time All-Pro George Kittle, are shown in various stages of repose, soothed by the notion of a less-invasive prostate cancer screening at their disposal.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s something that\u2019s personal to me,\u201d Gonzalez told USA TODAY Sports. \u201cIt runs in my family. And obviously I\u2019m somebody at risk for it. I\u2019ve teamed up with them mainly because of that \u2013 to get the word out and let people know about early detection, that there\u2019s a better way than what it used to be.<\/p>\n
