It's an abscess. They are very common on ruminants like cattle, deer, or antelope, they get them from bacteria making it into the bloodstream and then lodging in an organ like the liver, kidneys, or spleen. I saw literally thousands of them working in a slaughterhouse. The fact that it had no odor means it was not "hot", i.e. the infection had been eliminated but the abscess had not yet been absorbed.
