Dak Prescott said: “It’s a privilege to spend my time and just hopefully to spread hope. To give an understanding of Grant and what his life was and taking his life and just hearing the different stories from different family members and how many family members have been impacted. It’s special just being able to partner with Solomon Thomas. Just being able to speak out being a football player, being a man to end this stigma of men can’t speak out and men can’t deal with mental battles or mental issues. To see Solomon, a champion, speak out means the world. We’re part of an unfortunate brotherhood of losing a family member to suicide. To team up and end this epidemic and try to put our best foot forward.”
