At the NFL Players Live community event in the Crescent City, the NFL players joined with the Teamsters, Feed the Children and School of the Legends, the NFL?s online football social community, to distribute food to local families in need.

As part of the program, many of the players wore ?Save Avondale Shipyard? t-shirts to show their support for the workers at Avondale shipyard, which is set to close in 2013, putting nearly 5,000 people out of jobs.
