Meet Three Time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl Champion, Brendon Ayanbadejo
Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl champion Brendon Ayanbadejo is a modern day Renaissance man who understands both the pain of discrimination and the personal joy that comes from embracing an unwavering belief in equal rights for all. The three time NFL Pro-Bowler is known as much for his prowess on the gridiron as he is for his resolute devotion to champion the right for gay couples to legally wed. Brendon was born in Chicago on September 6, 1976 to an Irish-American mother and a Nigerian father. As a child of a biracial couple, he was taunted over his parents’ right to be married, and this harsh bias left its mark. Today he sees the fight to legalize same-sex marriage as the 21st century version of the fight for racial equality, and he has thrown himself into the battle for equal rights with a relentless determination towards victory.
