Other players are again shining light on organizations close to their heart: Big Brothers Big Sisters Twin Cities (Harrison Smith), University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital (Kyle Rudolph), Boys & Girls Clubs (Kirk Cousins) and the Minnesota Vikings Foundation (Dalvin Cook), among others.
Eric Kendricks, whose cleats represent All Square, spoke with Twin Cities media members Wednesday and expressed appreciation for the unique platform to raise awareness.
"It gives everybody an opportunity to showcase a cause they're working for, and they get to do it in a cool way with the cleats," Kendricks said. "I saw some really cool cleats in the locker room today. It gets everybody interested and gets more involvement.
"I suggest to the fans, find some of your favorite players or maybe some of the favorite cleats you find and look a little bit more into the organizations they represent," he added.
