St. Louis Rams defensive ends William Hayes and Chris Long went undercover on the streets of St. Louis, posing as homeless men to try and understand the challenges homeless people face in their own city. ESPN cameras followed Long and Hayes to capture their experience, which Long said was life-changing.
William Hayes has been an unbelievable presence in our community and the cause that he's really given most of his time to is homelessness.

We were supposed to stay in a shelter after our first night on the streets before our cover was blown.
