Book club is the MVP of Patriot wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell's career

When Malcolm Mitchell was in college, he joined a ladies' book club to improve his reading. Now preparing for his first Super Bowl, the Patriots wide receiver is sharing his success. Steve Hartman reports.

"It's like a badge of honor to me". Mad respect brother

[@AKABoondock19]

If you are watching this and dont know football, two days after this video Malcolm Mitchell had 70 yards in the superbowl to help the patriots win it.

[@drmayeda1930]

I wonder if anyone at the book club knows much about football and if they were watching? If he can just stay grounded and out of trouble, he might have a long career.

Went on to way better things, won't have dementia at 50

[@sabevabg]

I don't know American football , it doesn't get much coverage in my country. Thanks for the info. Glad for Malcolm and wish him success , on and off the pitch.

[@NormanWLawrence1019]

Dang man, I’m too old to be crying over vids like this...love Malcolm

[@TheRescueDogs]

I love they keep bring Malcolm's story back. It's so wonderful and heartwarming.

[@yk-zu7tr]

It's a shame he's not in the nfl anymore he's one of the most genuine people in the world and we need more people like him

[@adub92199]

Yonaton Kadosh happened?

[@jjh1978-2]

Aaron W. He had to retire due to injuries.

[@timvoie2026]

What a wonderful story and a wonderful young man. I never tire of Steve Hartman's 'feel good' stories.

[@lovepatel3023]

He came to my school to day I hugged him

[@Chubb4Heisman]

I tried to hate you for doing work against my Falcons in the SB. But, I...I just don't have it in me. I knew you were going to be special the day you set foot in Athens Malcolm!

[@jiggs509]

Dawgs Highlights underrated pick. When NE picked him up I'm like man he's a sleeper.

[@r6-AgentScorpionParkerKRider23]

I'm a Gator fan until I die, but you UGA guys always have someone every few years that I just can't seem to hate....Hines Ward, Terrell Davis, Quincy, Garrison, few other too....this young man is no different. Just a class act and a good dude all around

[@sandraelliot7260]

I LOVE this young man shares his name, "Malcolm", with our grandson, and my father I never knew!!!

[@peterrodby2786]

Being called a nerd was a "badge of honor" for Malcolm Mitchell. Just watching him say that made my heart flutter.

[@vianeyportillo3932]

Malcolm Visited my school today. Everyone went crazy!!!! 3/23/17

[@lindamccormick6203]

I'm not a fan of the Patriots, but I am a fan of yours! Keep up the great work encouraging young children to read. I'm going to look for your book and read it to my students. I can't wait to share your story!

[@nearzero12]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes!! All of that and more!! Thank you brotha for being such a stunning example of hardwork and greatness!

[@janetwrenn1623]

After watching this on CBS Sunday Morning. This guy is amazing! If only we all were more like Malcolm Mitchell!

[@TanEbear]

This is so moving!

[@jantruitt9241]

Another wonderful story A reunion with the book club football player Thank You Steve ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@TLH1310]

FYI, He's not alone. Patriots player Martellus Bennett has also written a couple of children's books also.

[@nhiarslain2422]

Football is a blessing... Reading is his hard work. His most proud accomplishment! My mother, who had had about 6 months to a year, total, of education because of the war (in Vietnam), but learned enough to read, and continued to read whatever (which was hard to come by then) to better herself. She was a more-learned person than any of her peers who had higher ed... I still remember her reading to my dad, sharing & discussing the stories with him every night or whenever they rested. My love for reading is my priced inheritance from her. Thx mom.

[@hippiechick1111]

The most wonderful information of my day!! Love you Malcolm

[@BenAziz007]

[@melbaltazar29]

[@jarrett4me]

A wonderful and blessed accomplishment

[@carolineteymoorian5227]

So proud of this kind, gentle young man.

[@stressbelden5869]

Class act. Hope he stays that away. If he stays w/the Pats, he will. Coach BB does not allow any...ANY player to have a big ego.

[@romanromano4338]

Oh, Lord! I just love this man!

[@LD-bv1pm]

What an amazing young man.

[@mstavie10]

I absolutely love his soul! 🫶🏾

[@noelbate505]

[@ac6298]

OUTSTANDING

[@ruthelisaluna6910]

God will continue to bless Malcolm!!!

[@davejohnson4472]

God bless him

[@tanyabolton1457]

Awesome

[@charl_lee]

2:35 was hella wholesome. You could see how much that meant to Malcolm. Not very often a white man says something like that to a person of any other race. Seeing Malcolm's face and reaction almost got me to tear up. The world needs more news like this.

[@yitzchakissachirschberg7670]

Good man...

[@williamweaver7251]

Good on the young man.

[@binodpathak9090]

i saw him at school 11/20/18

[@ruthelisaluna6910]

God will continue to be blessed

[@greekgirl1]

Go Dawg! 🙌

[@paulsmith8019]

It's called a great heart

[@paulsmith8019]

it's called a great heart

[@presidentcamacho4236]

Never been a more nervous group of husbands on planet earth lol hes young, strong, sharp and now a pro baller haha anyone would be stupid not to be worried

[@joecole2318]

More of this please. We need more of this then the ridiculous liberal, leftist, woke radical nonsense

[@generalbrowser680]

2:35 Well we could end this, but people keep teaching their children to think a certain way about people, and the cycle continues throughout the generations.

[@atlantaborn]

That nerd has a super bowl ring..Whomever called him that!!

[@khaleayoungblood3774]

😊😊😊

[@suadpolashek6400]

I wish that bf i die i could meet this lovely man... I really do can CBS Evening News arrange that for me, please?

[@juliustube718]
