Houston Texans defensive end Will Anderson Jr. and linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair were brought together by football, but it is a relationship forged by faith.
Anderson, a Christian, and Al-Shaair, a Muslim, didn’t let religious differences divide them. Instead, they leaned into their shared piousness to build a bond through faith that has paid dividends both on and off the field.
“I’m a Christian through and through, but I also think it’s very important to see how other people … think and how they feel about certain things,” Anderson said.
