In this week's episode, we talk to 2025 Heisman Humanitarian Award winner Larry Fitzgerald, a legendary wide out for Pittsburgh who finished as Heisman runner up in 2003 before going on to a storied NFL career with the Arizona Cardinals.

Fitzgerald shares insights into his philanthropic efforts through his Larry Fitzgerald Foundation, which focuses on youth education and breast cancer awareness. He emphasizes the importance of bridging the digital divide for underserved youth and reflects on his global humanitarian experiences. The conversation also touches on his football career, legacy, and the impact of his work in the community.

The Heisman is more than a trophy. It's also a charitable foundation that distributes millions in donations every year to worthy causes that help underserved communities. The Heisman Humanitarian Award recognizes figures in the sports world who have distinguished records in this area.
