On the 'Chiefs Wire Podcast Interview Series', we showcase new players, celebrities, and prominent NFL players with unique takes and stories about the Kansas City Chiefs.
Watch as Senior Writer Ed Easton Jr. speaks with Chiefs legend and franchise leader in tackles, Derrick Johnson, about his new children's book, 'Super DJ Saves Field Day,' Defend The Dream Foundation, and his journey to becoming a Pro Bowler in the NFL.
"My mom's a school teacher for a long time, over 40 years. So, being able to get the right values at a young age allows me to help the kids out because I've been in their seats before. I also have my foundation (Defend The Dream Foundation) and attend various schools, even if they're not affiliated with my foundation. I'm always interested in working with high schools, junior highs, and elementary schools, helping to motivate students. My book (Super DJ Saves Field Day) is a prime example of my wife and me writing. It is a prime example of something they can take home and remember."
