Many Raiders fans when they think of former safety Michael Huff, the first thing that jumps to their mind is the game in Houston in 2011 days after the death of Al Davis. Huff had the game-winning interception in the end zone against the Texans on a play in which the Raiders had just ten players on the field.
Well, the Texas native is being a hero in his home state once again. Huff and former UT Arlington basketball star Marquez Haynes are stepping up to provide hot meals across Texas during the state’s current power outage crisis.

The situation in Texas right now is dire. Due to power outages resulting from severe winter storms, millions of homes and businesses are without power. People are dying from various problems caused by the freezing temperatures and outages, which include, in many cases, gas lines as well. Additionally, the freezing has caused water pipes to burst, causing additionally dangerous conditions, not the least of which is no water to drink and boil water alerts.
President Biden has called for a state of emergency in Texas which is now five days into the outages. Major props to Huff for doing what he can to help people in his home state.
