Better Mondays: Exonerated Player, Brian Banks, Signed by Atlanta Falcons

Faith does work!

 If the name Brian Banks sounds familiar, its because last year, his story shocked Americans everywhere. He was the number 11 ranked football player with multiple scholarships and opportunities within Division 1 football.

According to ABC News, that all came to an end when at the age of 17, Banks was convicted for raping a high school friend. Years later, while on probation, his accuser messaged him on Facebook, admitting that she had lied about the accusations

Now, after multiple training camps, Brain has officially signed with the Atlanta Falcons:

Shortly before the start of the 2012-2013 season, the Falcons invited him to try out.“He had a great workout, but the timing was bad,” Glazer said. “But the Falcons gave me their word that they would sign him. Not then but soon.”Eight months later, they kept their word.

“We’re putting together our roster and this isn’t a charity case,” Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff told the NFL Network. “This is a great, feel-good story, but it’s also one that we believe that he has a chance to come in there and compete.”

This is an amazing story!

I wonder what's taking Lifetime so long to make a movie about it....
