Our journey started in 1977 with a simple mission: to honor players who overcome adversity. Today, that mission continues to grow through the National Courage House Network and awards honoring legendary spirits like Mo Gaba. Thank you to everyone who has been part of our story. 💙

Congratulations to @AllenRobinson on an amazing NFL career 👏

Allen was voted by his peers to receive the @EdBlock Courage Award twice: in 2015 as a member of the Jacksonville @Jaguars and again in 2019 with the @ChicagoBears. His perseverance, toughness, humility, and selflessness defined the kind of teammate and competitor he was throughout his career.

Wishing you all the best in retirement!

@RSRLombardi Tony we would love to have you on the podcast to talk about your relationship with Sam and the foundation.

[Lombardi Party of One @RSRLombardi]

The @EdBlock Courage Award Foundation does amazing things. The pioneering Sam Lamantia, Jr. was its driving force. He passed earlier this summer and surprisingly, I wasn't aware of it until this week. Here's remembering Mr. Sam and his wonderful legacy 💜💜💜

Winning the NFL’s Ed Block Courage Award during the last year of my career was one of the greatest honors of my life. Thank you to @edblockfoundation for having me on your podcast recently. I shared my journey, some lessons I’ve learned along the way and I had a lot of fun with the guys who were on. You can check out the full podcast on their channel but here’s a two minute excerpt when I talk a little about @FellsLennon and his QB journey
