For those of you unfamiliar with his story, Hargrove is a player that has been plagued in his brief NFL career with addictions to drugs and alcohol. He was suspended by the NFL for the entirety of the 2008 season due to a failed drug test. Since then, the Saints took a gamble on the player with an extremely checkered past based on his potential, and so far it is paying off. Hargrove has cleaned up his act and he's played a nice role on the Saints' pass rushing packages. It's also nice to see that he's drawing from his humble life experiences to benefit the community.
