Former Vikings safety Jack Brewer gets humanitarian award

Super Bowl 50 was a massive event that put two of the best teams in professional football on display. Not only that, but some of the most popular musicians in the world perform and businesses pay millions of dollars for seconds of television air time to help sell their products.

However, one of the more understated moments of Super Bowl weekend happened on Saturday when former University of Minnesota and Minnesota Vikings safety Jack Brewer received the Steinberg DeNicola Humanitarian Award at Leigh Steinberg’s 29th Annual Super Bowl Party according to an article on Vikings.com.

Brewer was only a member of the Minnesota Vikings from 2002 until 2003, but had a 5 year career in the NFL with 4 different teams before focusing on humanitarian efforts.
