visited an Elementary school to share some of his life experiences as a NFL player.

“It’s about giving back and putting smiles on the kids’ faces and letting them share in an experience that will hopefully last a lifetime,” said Spiller. “I’ll know I’ll remember it.”

The Florida native fondly recalls the day he met his hero. He was 10 years old when he shook hands and got an autograph from Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Warrick Dunn.

“It left a lasting impression,” he said. “From that day forward, he turned into my favourite player.”

In fact, Spiller wears Dunn’s No. 28 with the Bills as a tribute to his retired idol.
