DeAngelo Williams wants to wear pink to raise breast cancer awareness after his mother died of the disease, but the NFL won't let him. First, he petitioned the NFL to wear pink accessories all season long, not just during October when the league says it's okay. He was denied. Then he wore eye black that read "WE WILL FIND A CURE" instead of the other pink accessories the league okays. He was fined.
DeAngelo Williams’ adorable daughters are fighting breast cancer AND the NFL
The league won’t let their dad wear pink, so they’re wearing pink for him.
So his daughters are doing their part to raise awareness:

You might remember Williams’ girls from when one of them drew up a play for Mike Tomlin. (On a pink piece of paper, of course.)
