Teez Tabor opens up on past mistakes: ‘I fell out of love with the game’

A few years back, the Detroit Lions committed to several different social outreach programs after the protests during the national anthem got owner Martha Ford’s attention. One of those programs was the Detroit Youth Violence Prevention Initiative: The Brotherhood & Sisterhood.

Last Thursday, five Lions players—Teez Tabor, Devon Kennard, Tavon Wilson, Da’Shawn Hand and Charles Washington—traveled to the most dangerous part of Detroit to take part in that program, which aims to create opportunities for young people with help from the local police department.

Also there was MLive reporter Kyle Meinke, who wrote this fantastic story about the different side of Teez Tabor he saw that Thursday evening.
