Here is an example of someone to admire with a bad childhood.
Knowshon Moreno
Continuing a long line of football excellence out of the state of New Jersey, Knowshon Moreno overcame a tough childhood to become one of the most versatile backs in the NFL. As a child, he bounced around from homeless shelter to homeless shelter with his father in the New York City area, which is never a stable growing environment for anyone, let alone a 10-year-old kid.
But when Knowshon turned 11, that all changed. Thanks to some loving family in Jersey, Moreno finally had the chance to focus and be great at something he never knew he could do. Every time he takes the field, Knowshon remembers all that he’s been through and all that he’s overcome just to stand there in that uniform. There is a
story behind those tears.
