When you watch the NFL games this weekend, take a close look at your favorite players’ cleats. More than 750 players around the league will lace up for different charitable causes as part of the NFL’s “My Cause My Cleats” initiative. Some of the custom cleats will be auctioned to raise money for the organizations they support.
Below are some of the players’ custom footwear and the cause they will be supporting.
