The NFL is a brotherhood, a collection of thousands of young men who have fought through sweat and blood to play out their lifelong dream of becoming professional football players. There’s a reason why, when the draft was held in person, tears stream down the faces of some of the toughest men on the planet. Years of two-a-days in the summer heat and overcoming pain and injuries finally pay off in the realization of a dream.
That struggle bonds men together, even if they don’t know each other, because they know each other’s struggle. The like experiences tie people from different backgrounds, social and economic and because of those similarities it feels like they’ve grown up together. So imagine what it’s like for two actual brothers who have helped and supported their sibling up the ladders from Pop Warner to the pros.
Thats where brothers Stefon and newest Dallas Cowboys corner Trevon Diggs find themselves now that the Alabama star has been selected in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Days before, Stefon took the time out to pen a visual letter to his brother, reminiscing about their journey, thanking him for helping the older brother grow, and telling him how proud he is.
