A couple of years ago he had rotator cuff surgery. We used to discuss recovery as I had the same operation.

He recovered well from that surgery and with this new issue I can only hope for the best.

It’s not a new issue. He’s dealt with it for years.

Wasn't aware but he told me about 2 years ago he was 100% healed and feeling great.

Not the shoulder, the condition that causes the issue with his jaw. Apparently it’s not dangerous, and if he were to have it surgically addressed, the risk is facial nerve damage that could obviously permanently risk his voice delivery.

Just Googled this.

I assume this is what you are referring to.

Many viewers have noticed a visible bump or swelling on his left cheek, which is widely believed to be a benign (non-cancerous) parotid or salivary gland tumor. Fans and medical observers speculate that he has chosen not to surgically remove it because it is benign and surgery in that exact area carries a high risk of damaging the facial nerve, which could affect his speech and broadcasting career.

This is exactly right. I know from a close family member. It can be “de-bulked“ at any time.
