For former NFL player Major Wright, "Kill or be killed," has always been his mantra, the result of an incident in a local park at just seven-years-old that would forever change the course of his career.

That pivotal moment would eventually lead Major to the University of Florida and a BCS Championship, to the Chicago Bears and an NFC Championship, to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the American Flag Football League.

Now, Wright is CEO of The Wright Baagz, a new line of book bags for the athlete. In the meantime, his Good Deed Tuesdays, #GDT, continue to provide mentorship to young athletes across the country.

Influenced by NFL veterans like Brian Urlacher, Julius Peppers, and Lance Briggs, Wright shares words of wisdom for young athletes and NFL hopefuls. "No matter how great of a player you are, you will not see the field if you are not coachable."
