All-Pro linebacker DeMarcus Ware of the Dallas Cowboys has publicly championed the importance of unity amongst all players. His latest act of leadership further proves that he is one of many players setting the example.
Ware voluntarily decided not to accept his $60,000 to be paid to players to assist them financially during the lockout. Knowing that he has greater financial stability than some of his locked-out brethren, Ware would rather see it go to other players.
“I gave my money back to help out other guys that don’t have as much money,” Ware said Wednesday. “That is going to help out and bring us closer together.”
