"I think you are going to see more players stepping up and are not afraid to say, 'I'm standing here. I understand this community needs my support,'" said RaShauna Hamilton, the senior director for community relations and youth programs for the Miami Dolphins. "And I don't think you are going to see that just with Dolphins players. I think you are going to see that with professional sports in general."
