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

[@texasforever8611]

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.

[@billyjean2012]

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.

[@yesuis7965]

A lot of innocent men in jail😢

[@Tiblious]

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.

[@kairarawa]

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.

[@armstrongQB1]

When I think of NFL Films I think of clips like these 12:03. Captures the speed and physicality of the game while also adding elements like the music, shots of the crowd, narration, slow motion replay etc. to really capture the moment. I'm glad you're watching NFL films. They're actually the reason I became a fan of the NFL.

What a badass. His sister seems awesome too

[@AceManning18]

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.

[@slimjim8455]

Pass blocking doesn’t get talked about much

[@AceManning18]

​@@slimjim8455very true. At his size he had no business being left in to block defensive ends or linebackers, and I remember him doing a fine job. Very underrated player.. the Bucs run game was never the same after he left. And he was a major key to the Falcons having such a dominant running game with Vick. Much better player than TJ Duckett, that's for sure.

[@jonahdunn1380]

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!!

[@brandonfouts4074]

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

[@JuicyPlayer]

Yeah I wish he would’ve stayed for one more year. He really deserved a ring.

[@WillMuny]

He didnt get traded. He was a Free Agent and the Bucs had no money. They also lost Donnie Abraham , at the time the Bucs all time INT leader.

[@TheRealDarthVadar]

He wasn't traded , he was a free agent and choose to sign with Atlanta over like 5 other teams.

[@MrSupasoulsinga]

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.
