These are some incredible acts of kindness from Wills, especially during this unprecedented pandemic.
Wills was drafted by the Browns with the 1oth pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. Wills helped Alabama win the 2017 national title and was a first-team All-SEC selection in 2019.
Willis captured the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week for helping the Browns amass 231 yards and a touchdown on the ground vs. the Texans on Nov. 15. This was the first time an offensive lineman won the award since D.J. Fluker, another former Alabama lineman, in 2013, according to AL.com.
