1871 presents a discussion with former NFL defensive end Devon Still on values and resilience in the face of adversity. In addition to being a pro athlete, Still is an entrepreneur, motivational speaker, and advocate for childhood cancer awareness.
About Devon Still: A former American football defensive end, he was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft. After a complicated back surgery that almost took his life in 2015, his daughter Leah was diagnosed with a rare pediatric cancer. Miraculously, Still returned to the football field wearing Leah's message of hope during every game. Their fight impacted and inspired millions around the world. Now, through the Still Strong Foundation, his partnership with socially conscious organizations has raised more than $2 million and is influencing the global cancer conversation.
