PHILADELPHIA – Philadelphia Eagles safety back Rodney McLeod and several of his teammates drove around the city on a double-decker bus calling on people to vote on Tuesday.
Using megaphones, they addressed people through various routes. McLeaod and his teammates emphasized the importance of going to vote and reminded everyone to wear a mask to protect themselves from COVID-19.
Defensive backs Darius Slay, Jalen Mills, Avonte Maddox, Grayland Arnold and Elijah Riley, wide receiver Greg Ward, tight end Dallas Goedert, tackle Jordan Mailata and backup quarterback Jalen Hurts joined McLeod.
McLeod and his wife, Erika, established the “My Voice My Vote” initiative in partnership with the Change Our Future foundation to support and encourage civic engagement and go and vote.
The organization provides shuttle services to the poles in North Philadelphia, in addition to providing meals for volunteers who work on polling day.
