For NFL Giving, Warrick Dunn Is a Model

Warrick Dunn has been retired for nine years. It’s interesting that, even though he is one of 31 men to rush for more than 10,000 yards in NFL history (he is 22nd all-time with 10,967 yards; number 21 is O.J. Simpson), we probably don’t remember him for being the shifty, speedy, slippery all-purpose back for the Bucs and Falcons for 12 seasons.

We remember him—at least I do—more for giving away houses than for touchdown runs, in part because he’s still doing it.

Even in retirement, Dunn and his Warrick Dunn Charities are still partnering with Habitat for Humanity to build homes for disadvantaged families across the United States.
