Albertha can’t count the number of times she cried from a hospital bed the day her oldest sons’ enemies shot up her home. What if Davon had been there? While at home, Davon spent most of his time in the kitchen or on the couch – two areas riddled with bullet holes.

Yes he did...

And has become a good person and a beast on the field. Overcame a lot.

He's probably my favorite player on the team. Dude has his priorities straight and is a great player. He'll be a great man and father.

Amazingly grounded kid for having experienced what he has. Hoping he has a long and successful career as it's nice to see people rise above their situations rather than using them to be complacent. Great role model for the young Tiger fans to admire.

Would this make a good Outside the Lines story?

Powerful story and well written.

Got a little teary eyed. What a badass and a good guy.
