By  Judd Kozey III

Ever wondered about the journey of a football player who transitioned from a college star to a seasoned NFL quarterback, and then became a beacon of hope for families dealing with autism? Rodney Peete's story is one of resilience, leadership, and a relentless pursuit of making a difference, both on and off the field.

Rodney Peete, born on March 16, 1966, in Mesa, Arizona, etched his name in the annals of American football, not just as a player, but as a personality who championed causes beyond the gridiron. His 16-season NFL career, spanning from 1989 to 2004, saw him don the jerseys of six different teams, leaving an impact that reverberates to this day. But before the NFL fame, there was USC, where Peete honed his skills and laid the foundation for his future success. His achievements at the University of Southern California, including winning the Johnny Unitas Award and setting numerous school records, are a testament to his dedication and talent.
