Against All Odds

Born into a broken home in Wichita, Kansas, Davontae Harris knew struggle before he knew football. Homelessness, instability, and a speech impediment were the obstacles life placed in his path before he ever stepped on a field.

It was the Baker family who became his mentors, providing stability and belief when no one else would. Davontae didn't even start playing football until late in high school, yet his raw talent and relentless work ethic caught the attention of Illinois State.

A life-threatening injury nearly ended everything before it started. But Davontae fought back, defied the odds, and heard his name called in the 2018 NFL Draft. From the streets of Wichita to the biggest stage in sports, his story is proof that your beginning doesn't define your ending.

"They told me I'd never make it. I used that as fuel. Every 'no' became a reason to work harder."
