The one-of-a-kind story of Shaquem Griffin has added another chapter.
The NCAA honored the Seahawks linebacker and first one-handed player in the NFL with its 2019 Inspiration Award on Wednesday at the NCAA Honors Celebration in Orlando, Florida.
The site of the ceremony had special meaning for Griffin, 23. He attended and starred on the field for the University of Central Florida in Orlando through 2017. The school is about 100 miles east of where Griffin grew up, in St. Petersburg. Plus, UCF is home to Limbitless Solutions, an organization that creates low-cost prosthetic limbs for children using three-dimensional printers.
