On to the Nxt Level 🙏

Grateful for the journey, the lessons, and the people who believed every step of the way. This is bigger than football—this is legacy, growth, and purpose.

Chicago native and Tennessee Titans first-round draft pick, No. 4 overall, Carnell Tate, returned home to invest in the next generation by visiting Bulls College Prep Football and dropping off some new gear. After being selected 4th overall in the 2026 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans, Tate came back to the city that helped shape him to inspire young student-athletes.

During his visit, Tate shared his journey from Chicago to Ohio State and the NFL, encouraging players to stay disciplined, work hard in the classroom, and never lose sight of their dreams. He spent time talking with athletes, answering questions, and offering advice on what it takes to succeed at the highest level.

Tate also made a major impact off the field by donating Sports uniforms, Adidas gear, cleats, and a $2,500 NFL grant to support every player in the Bulls College Prep football program on today.

His message was simple but powerful: Never forget where you come from, and always find a way to give back x Chicago Son #Explore #DraftPicks #Lottery #Titans by @nla_chicago

Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the tragic loss of Keshawn Hunt. A young man with a bright future, a college football player, and someone who meant so much to so many, Keshawn’s life was taken far too soon.

We extend our deepest condolences and prayers to the Hunt family, his friends, teammates, coaches, and everyone who loved him. May God surround you with strength, comfort, and peace during this unimaginable time.

Rest in peace, Keshawn. You will never be forgotten. 🕊️🙏 by @nla_chicago

#DUMP trying to clear my phone off and forgot to post the Rose Bowl 🥀 from 2025. After witnessing Reggie Bush and Vince Young go at it back in the day, I knew I had to experience The Grandfather of Bowls. Who knew it would be a kid from the Westside of Chicago who’d be the reason I go there 🥹 what an amazing season. Watch Carnell do what he said he was he gone do upclose 🫶🏽 #NFL #17 #tennessee #titans taken in Pasadena, California by @nla_chicago
