Charles James II is known for his passion for football, dancing, and fun-loving personality.

It’s why he feels a special connection to children dealing with autism. James will be representing autistic children and their families Sunday during during the NFL’s My Cause, My Cleats campaign.

“I have a close friend of mine, his little boy is autistic,” James said. “He doesn’t necessarily talk. He doesn’t talk much at all. He’ll hum and things like that but he’s trying to express himself. Like if he sees something on TV, he’s trying to express himself but it’s not coming out.
