Not every high school gets to boast of having an alumnus suit up in the Super Bowl.
A pair of Foley (Ala.) prominent alumni have played in pro football’s biggest game, Ken Stabler (Super Bowl XI) and Julio Jones (Super Bowl LI). The current Atlanta Falcons wideout decided to give his former team, the Lions, a special souvenir.
