Brock Osweiler – NFLPA Community MVP (Nov. 14, 2014)
At the start of the 2014 season, Osweiler formed a relationship with the Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children to set up monthly visits with patients. Throughout the season Osweiler visited the hospital, spending time with each patient and thanking hospital staff.
“The visits to Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children has not only been a great thing for the kids, but it’s played a huge part in my life as well,” Osweiler said via the NFLPA website. “Playing in the NFL, I’m essentially living out my dream every single day, and I’m so fortunate for so many great things. To be able to be in a situation to give back just a little bit is something that means a lot to me. I think there is a great responsibility for NFL players to do that. It’s been a great deal so far.”
Osweiler’s work with children who are battling cancer extends beyond Colorado, as well. Last year he made a very special contribution in Arizona, where he starred as a quarterback at Arizona State, providing support for a family whose daughter was terminally ill.
