Lou Groza Field buzzed with excitement as young athletes gathered to participate in a day filled with fun and football. The event provided a platform for children with intellectual disabilities to showcase their abilities, build self-confidence and make lasting friendships.
Adding an extra dose of inspiration to the day, Cleveland Browns K Dustin Hopkins and WR Marquise Goodwin surprised the athletes during the middle school clinic as they jumped into drills, ran stations and shared their passion for the game.
Hopkins and Goodwin traded in their football cleats for sneakers and joined in on the fun. Their presence not only heightened their football experience of the young athletes, but also provided an opportunity for athletes to come together and take their skills to the gridiron to show that there is unity and support within the football community.
