Jason Snelling will help to raise awareness for epilepsy, a disease he is afflicted with, and caused him to miss a year of football in college at the University of Virginia. Snelling was officially diagnosed with the disease ten years ago.
The running back will take part in the National Walk for Epilepsy in Washington D.C. The walk takes place on Mar. 28, and Snelling has started a team for the event.
