Former Georgia defensive tackle Geno Atkins, an eight time pro-bowler with the Cincinnati Bengals, is doing his part to help out his local community amid the COVID-19 crisis.
According to Joe Danneman of FOX19, Atkins and his wife Kristen donated $100,000 to Freestore Foodbank. The donation will help to feed kids and families in the tri-state area.
The gift will help provide up to 300,000 meals and will go directly to feeding families in southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeast Indiana.
Atkins has been one of the league’s most consistent players since being drafted out of Georgia in 2010.
