People look up to athletes like they are modern day superheroes. They do things that most of us can never even imagine doing. However, most of them, were not always looked up to like that, and in fact many of them were bullied. Teaming up with USA Network, some of the NFL’s biggest stars will try and help those who are being bullied now.
The NFL has worked with USA in the past, airing a one hour documentary during Super Bowl week. Former participants include Justin Tuck, Troy Polamalu, and Larry Fitzgerald. However, the network has decided to expand the documentary into a web series focusing on one athlete per episode. The series kicked off with Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb and will continue with Charles “Peanut” Tillman, Victor Cruz, JJ Watt, and many more. To watch the series, check out the Characters Unite website. This week, Chicago Bear corner back Charles Tillman meets with a young girl named Katy who dreams of being an actress.
