Former Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders established himself as the greatest player at his position in NFL history, and will forever be looked at as an integral piece of sports history in the Motor City.
The legend himself took to social media to give a special shoutout to all of those on the front lines in the battle of the novel coronavirus, which has caused unprecedented disruption to nearly all of society’s daily lives.
“All of you on the front lines working hard to keep our country running during this time, we know we could not get through this without you,” he said.
We’re not a team because we work together, we’re a team because we respect, trust and care for each other. #EveryoneKnowsAHero @RocketMortgage pic.twitter.com/I4jM7CZo51
