It takes a village the saying goes – just three months after winning the Super Bowl, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif decides to forego the celebratory trip to Disney and instead join the fight against coronavirus as a doctor

Laurent found himself wanting to do more, at first he would share helpful information with his followers, but soon found himself with an opportunity when Canada began recruiting people to join the medical field
That was the lightbulb moment for Laurent, who also happens to hold a doctorate in medicine, as seen in this month’s digital issue of Sports Illustrated.
“It was an adjustment,” he recalls in the article. “You start asking: Are we going to cancel our charity golf tournament in June? Our big auction in April? Plus, the border is closed. It’s not like I could get back to Kansas City, with my teammates, when we were supposed to begin training for next season.”
