Charvarius Ward making a name for himself in the NFL
The 26-year-old has been in the NFL since 2018 after being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs. In his second season, Ward was part of the Chiefs team that won the Super Bowl in 2019.
After spending the first four years of his career with the Chiefs, Ward made the switch to the San Francisco 49ers last offseason.
Charvarius Ward played all 17 regular season games (just the second time in his career he has played all regular season games) and was a vital cog of the 49ers' stout defense.
While he is getting his feet underneath him in the NFL, his daughter's surgery is a timely reminder that football is secondary to what else can happen in life.
Thankfully, Amani is on the road to recovery and she will no doubt have her father by her side.
