Through it all, through all the heartache and loneliness, separated by distance and prison walls, two brothers refused to let go of their lifelong bond.
Rontez Miles and Vondre Griffin had shared an NFL dream since they were 9 years old. In 2013, Miles made the Jets as an undrafted free agent and embarked on a pro career as a reserve safety and special teams demon.
In October of that year, Griffin became inmate LG5242 at the State Correctional Institute in Mercer, Pa.
