This is Laurent Duvernay-Tardiff. The very proud 6' 5, 315 pound Canadian and only Medical Doctor to ever play in the NFL, just won the Super Bowl back in February. This year, however, the gentle giant is opting out of the NFL. He instead is choosing to work the COVID-19 frontlines in Quebec Nursing Homes. Duvernay-Tardiff says if he’s going to take COVID-19 risks, it will be helping people who need it most, not by splaying a sport. Now here's a good home town Canadian boy if there ever was one. You make all Canadians proud❤️🇨🇦❤️ 📷CBC
