• Posting Tuesday, Mangold asked potential donors to register through Columbia University's transplant portal using his full name and birthdate (Nicholas Mangold, 1/13/1984).
• He said no family members are able to donate and appealed to the Jets and Ohio State communities for a match with type O blood.
• After a severe downturn over the summer, he was hospitalized in late August and is now undergoing outpatient dialysis three times weekly.
• He told the New York Post he hopes for a living donor, is reportedly not on a transplant waitlist, and would have surgery at Columbia Presbyterian if a match is found.
• The 41-year-old played 11 seasons for the Jets, earned seven Pro Bowl selections and two first-team All-Pro honors, and was inducted into the team’s Ring of Honor in 2022.
