Growing up in a military community, with the helicopters flying above, seeing my family literally walk through the door every day in their uniforms, you grow up with a sense of pride and respect for the flag. I know what the members of the military do and have done to uphold the flag so that we can do the things that we do. And so for me, the military is very close to my heart. Growing up, I always thought that I would be in the military. My road to football was a little different.
