214 families given a home and property to keep is absolutely INSANE!! Mom raised an impressive man.

If you didn’t get chills watching this! DUNN IS A CLASS ACT 😎

This is enough to make a grown man shed a tear. Through all his struggles, he seemed so strong and grounded. His character, poise, love for his family, and ability to provide for those he loves is something I strive to have and be! What a stand-up guy!

His mom’s killer is a coward and had the opportunity to admit his wrong doing but still chose not to. Thank goodness for Dunn having the true power and being able to still forgive him.

Warrick Dunn is one of my favorite *humans* in all of professional sports. He was a great player, he is an even better person.

His story is truly remarkable, we definitely need more people like him in this world.

One of the most underrated 10k rushers ever alongside Thomas Jones

Protect Warrick Dunn at all costs

The brother was a special kind of guy !

Wow, his mom is smiling in heaven! What a story! Way to persevere and push through adversity and pain! So inspiring

These are the type of stories that make you feel grateful for every little thing you have. Bless this man & his family.

HE NEEDS A FOOTBALL LIFE ASAP

Tony Dungy is the father and mentor a lot of people needed

Warrick Dunns accomplishments are bigger than football, he's changed people's lives for the better. Definitely a man among men

Warrick is an example of a great man. He's literally a hero.

Warrick Dunn’s mom walks through the door of every new house. She has done such a great job raising him.❤❤❤

I couldn't make it 2 minutes before tears start falling. He has been a class act all his life.

What a badass. His sister seems awesome too

I’m from New Zealand so football means rugby or rugby league here but I love NFL and college football. NFL Films has so many great videos and this is absolutely a gem. I’m Māori, the indigenous people of New Zealand, so I’m what is often called a person of colour. I was also raised by a single mother and I understand how hard women like this work to keep their families safe and well. Warrick Dunn is clearly an outstanding human with incredible talent and determination and his story is beautifully told in this video.

never knew his story before this video, I didn't watch the NFL until i was in high school. But man this guy is amazing , thanks for putting this video together, its a great tribute to a great man.

It's crazy how what Warrick has accomplished isn't all over the news all the time. He is truly an example of how humanity should be and an example on how this world needs to be on the path for.

Instant click. 2003-2012 is football to me. I loved him. Bruh and he turns out to be just wholesome. Helping single families. Trials and tribulations, the perseverance on the dude. Nice.

Being a FSU fan he’s one of my all time favorite players!! When these stories happen there’s only 2 paths a young man can take. The bad path or the right path. A true inspiration to all athletes and young people around the world. You have my respect young man and well done young man. GO NOLES!!

Warrick Dunn was such a splendid phenomenal special player

I'm in tears. Mr. Dunn, you are the embodiment of altruism and humanity. 🙌🏾

For both his great football and great philanthropy contributions, Dunn is the greatest runningback in Atlanta Falcons history.

One of my favorite players growing up

A good mother is as good as 10 best men and the power of her love can move mountains, Mr Dunn is proof of his mother's beautiful soul, well done man!

You want someone to look up to - look no further than this man right here. God bless Warrick and his family. A great player, with a great heart.

I played running back in high school at 5'7, 155lbs. This dude was my inspiration when he was at Florida State. Just a badass.

Great player, even better human being.

Warrick Dunn, always been one of my favorite players. For being the size he was, he ran like he was 6'2, 215 lbs. Great pass catcher as well. I still remember the Rams/Bucs game on MNF in 2000, he made some crazy plays in that game. Basically won it for them in a revenge game for the previous years playoff defeat. Then, you have his story. As someone who grew up with a single mom, at least until I was 11, his story resonated with me so much. Just an amazing person, everything a man should be. Thanks for finally featuring him in a video, he deserves every bit of praise and attention he gets.

Warrick was one of my favorite players to watch man. He would tear the league up nowadays

I felt bad for him, he got traded from Tampa and then the Bucs won the Superbowl. He was worthy of the ring.

A great man and a great player he never got his ring but he won everything in life

Thank you for sharing this story of such a beautiful man. God bless Warrick Dunn.

Gawd I wish more of our young men were like this

A very humble MAN I can tell the way he speaks and he gave back big time to his family and countless others a real athlete to look up to. Rip to his mom she's looking down smiling seeing Warwick shine a beacon of light in such a dark world

Charlie Ward and Warick Dunn are the only non Saints/LSU players I have pictures of in my home. I still admire those men til this day

Warrick Dunn has impacted so many lives out of the goodness of his heart. He was a great football player but he is also the highest caliber human being. God Bless!

Underrated Great Running 🏃 Back Is Warrick #Great #Dude

Hes always been a total class act.

Warrick dunn damn one of my favorite running backs he deserves all the praises

I wish I knew about this back when he was still in the league. I had no idea. Thank you, NFL Films.

Rip Betty Smothers. Thank you for being a great mom and serving your community! 🇺🇸

What a great man he should be hall to f fame

What a great man! Oh, and he was pretty good at football too!😂

Mad love for you Mr. Dunn

His life is like a heavily sensationalized sports movie but it’s all true

As a Falcon fan, I’ve always liked Warrick. But even if he had never played a down for my team, I still would’ve liked him, because he has got such a heart and compassion for others and he has done a lot of amazing things.

One of my all time favorites. Great player even better human.

a true hero-a true man-wow!

I teared up watching this. Powerful! A great man!

When I first got into Football and Watching the Vick Era in ATL, Warrick Dunn became my favorite player. Amazing role model to those in every community. The universe is truly watching over him

What a blessing! Thank You Jesus Christ hallelujah! I’m so glad God blessed warrick to forgive, heal and honor his mommy by taking care of his family and many other families! He’s definitely made her proud😊. God bless you all 🙏

Warrick Dunn was a phenomenal player. Watched him in college at FSU. I knew he was going pro and gonna be successful.

His connection to his mom/his understanding of her even with her gone 💯💜🖤👑

To say that Warrick Dunn is an inspiration is a major understatement. I look at what he overcame and I don't feel so bad about my own situation.

I was in at the hospital when Betty was brought there that painful night I really didn't know it was Betty until I got home and watched the news I remember seeing them bring her in and they kept saying hang in there hang in there 😢😢 but didn't know it was her at that moment but ik it was a Baton Rouge police officer 😢😢 she also lived in my neighborhood To the family I send my deepest sympathy 🙏 😢 Warrick turned out to be an outstanding Guy and Father figure to his brothers and sisters Stand up guy that I'm proud of and I'm sure his mom Betty would be too Rip Betty Smothers.

Pure character, a good man, and a true human being.

I remember when I first moved to baton rouge I was downtown and they had a lot of police cars I inquired about what was going on and they said a cop was killed in the line of duty. I brought a newspaper and read her story and kept it until this day. It's a landmark reminder of a new life and a cop who was a single mom talking care of her children by any means necessary.

I've met Warrick a few times and he was always a stand up guy. Was very sad when he left Tampa.

I never knew his story, but i remember him as one of my favorite backs growing up. What a class act.

New Orleans born Baton Rouge raised 🫡🫡much respect mr.Dunn

He is a great person to help all those people and still keep going after all that tragedy is impressive..

As a Falcons fan I can say we appreciate him to the fullest.

Is not the NFL why I love Football, is the men like Warrick Dunn with all the character in the world that makes Football great!

What a great man! Remember him playing, his style & he was great! Warrick Dunne!!

As a long time Seminole i knew all of this. He is such a beautiful person

Class act unbelievable story

One of my favorite players and a great ambassador for Christ.. god bless Mr Dunn.. go Noles

My all time favorite player.. imma tampa bay fan because of him‼️

I could be late but he needs some stadiums, county named after him, and so more awards.

Me and this dude played football in middle school together (Prescott middle) both of us shared the QB spot and basketball he was the point guard and I was shooting guard. He was great on every level from peewee to the NFL.

Charlie Ward, best NY QB in the 90s 😂

I became an FSU fan because of Dunn. All of the kids wanted to wear a kidney protector, or “backflap” as we called it, because of him. But as I got older and learned more about the man, I’m even more impressed.

Incredible story!

What a kind soul ❤

This is the type of man who should be celebrated!

This is whom kids should be looking up to!! Loved watching the 1, 2 punch of Alstott and Dunn growing up!

I cry for Joy, this Man is the epitome of Grace, Compassion and the Spirit of God!!! What an Absolutely Amazing Person and example of Humanity.🌄👊❤️🙏

Good piece NFL Films!😢

Your story touches me so hard bro and you are the one player you and Charlie is the main reason I started liking FSU

What a tremendous story. Warwick Dunn is an amazing human being. Bless him and his family

Warrick is truly a legendary man.

🗣️about damn time!! I’ve watch this guy from 93-2008.

An absolute LEGEND!

Can we get a full video on the Nigerian nightmare please people forget how good he was in his short career

10:37 broke Reggie whites ankles

im a die hard hurricANE EVEN FSAU PLAYED MIAMI I CHEERED FOR HIM

One of his brothers was my RB coach in high school, and one of his brothers was my manager at target.

One of the greatest RB's of all-time ❤

That man is both a saint and a stud of a player!

This man is a man sent from The Most High. So much maturity at a young age. It's a shame his mom got killed. He has blessed many people and God blessed him in tragedy.

All I knew about Warrick before this is that as a Vikings fan the combination of Dunn and Alstott had to be the most frustrating (especially if I was playing Madden). What a great documentary and I hope he's doing well today!

It was an era in Tampa where it was Dungy-ball, defensive minded, and the forward pass was a near novelty. Tells you how valuable Warrick Dunn really was.

Nole family is so proud of you Warwick.

True role model. Not just in sports, but in life

Great story. Warrick Dunn is that dude

This is how ppl should use their platform. What a great person and he was given every reason to fail and be hateful. So much division in the world its easy to forget there are some truly special ppl out there making an impact on others lives .
