Former Texans lineman Marcus Spears to host Wheelchair Super Bowl

In partnership with other former NFL players, former Texans lineman Marcus Spears is hosting a Wheelchair Super Bowl on Saturday in Pasadena.

Other NFL alumni scheduled to attend: former Chicago Bears player James Burton, former Green Bay Packers player Herman Fontenot and former San Francisco 49ers player Chuck Thomas, a two-time Super Bowl winner.

The tournament is a round-robin football event for charity that unites wounded veterans and NFL players. It's organized through the Watering Seeds Organization and Brady Mazzola and provides help to veterans to promote awareness of rehabilitation and recreation opportunities for wounded veterans and challenged civilians.
