The NFL Players Association announced Tuesday it's partnering with Black Men Vote for a venture centered around "voter registration and engagement."
NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith discussed the collaboration:
"Black Men Vote's mission to empower men of color and to educate them on issues that impact our communities seamlessly aligns with what we stand for as a union as well as with the players we represent. Voting is one of the greatest weapons we have in our ongoing march for justice. Together, I'm excited to see what we will accomplish as we work to make sure that every voice is heard at the polls.
