COLORADO SPRINGS â Every year, former and current NFL athletes travel to Colorado Springs for Pro Football Camp.
The three day camp gives kids of all ages the opportunity to learn new skills on and off the field.
After Wednesday s camp, former NFL athlete, Anthony Trucks, spoke to more than 25 foster children.
Trucks grew up in foster care and was given away at the age of three.
It did not take long before he found football. When you are in foster care the difficult thing is you don t have a lot of self worth, said Trucks.
