“In football, you have to be able to talk to people who come from different backgrounds, who come from different socioeconomic circumstances. They may have a different level of education. And you have to be able to communicate with those people and still come together to achieve a common goal.”
Former @Pitt_FB + @Lions WR Dontez Ford shares the power of the game.
