Godwin Igwebuike
Godwin Igwebuike, now a running back with the Detroit Lions, has faced a roller coaster path to the NFL. He recaps his eventful football journey in a new mini-documentary titled “The Long Way.” According to the YouTube description, the self-produced video is “a story of the promises of God being fulfilled despite inconceivable odds.”
In an Instagram post about the doc, the athlete writes: “God has brought me on an incredible journey and I’m excited to get a chance to share what some of that has been like while still looking forward to where He’s taking me.” Igwebuike, who describes surrendering his career to God, posted earlier this year: “I feel overwhelmingly grateful His plans for my life were indeed more than I could ever think or imagine.”
