Nobody gives a crap about this I guess, shunned for more virulent soil.

It's nice of him. But it's surprising that that effort marks him as the Bill offered up for the Walter Payton award.

In CIN, Payton nominee Dalton's foundation has raised over $2M. Carlos Dunlap's camp foundation has existed for years. Last week, 3 players doled out 200+ bikes. Coach-for-Life Marvin's Community Foundation has raised over 11 million. CIN players are often in the local news, be it Habitat for Humanity work or cleaning up a playground or visiting ill children.

Say what we will about owner Brown, but he is a very decent man, which is reflected in the players.

It's very nice stuff to read, but I sometimes wonder if the charitable work isn't written into their contracts as a league mandate.

Does anybody know?

I don't know but I do know the players have more opportunity than most people because they don't work regular hours. During the season I'm sure it's tough, but I'd do a lot more charitable work if my job had an off-season.

Some players go out and get in trouble in the off-season, other do things for other under-privileged folks.
