For the fifth-consecutive season, NFL players are raising awareness for non-profit organizations and causes on the field through the My Cause My Cleats<\/em> campaign. This year a record number of more than 1,000 players are participating, highlighting efforts to help make a difference in communities across the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The player-led campaign began in 2016 and has since provided a platform to bring causes they are most passionate about to the forefront on gameday. This year’s causes include topics such as tackling social injustice, supporting families in the wake of COVID-19, and bridging the digital divide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out of all participants, 20.5 percent of players selected social justice causes, 17 percent selected causes related to youth and education while 14 percent of players will support health and wellness-related initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
