The website posted an incomplete story Tuesday announcing coach Doug Marrone was diagnosed with cancer.
It was deleted nine hours afterward, though the URL and three comments on an empty page are still up.

Update:
Marrone does not have cancer, but did have a cancer scare.
Marrone: During a recent doctor's visit, it was discovered that I had a cancerous mole on my skin, which has since been removed. (1) #Bills

Marrone: The only follow up required is to have my moles checked every 3 months and that basically is the end of the story. (2)
