Super Bowl Soulful Honoring Faith & Football’s Finest:
One of the biggest moments of the night belongs to Michael Strahan, who is receiving the Lifetime of Inspiration Award for his impact both on and off the field.
From his Hall of Fame NFL career to his role as a TV personality, businessman, and mentor, Strahan has always carried himself with faith and purpose. His journey is a testament to what happens when hard work, perseverance, and divine favor align.
Jayden Daniels, the electrifying quarterback whose leadership extends far beyond the football field, will also take center stage. He’s receiving the Faith in Action Award, which recognizes how his belief in God keeps him grounded, focused, and prepared for anything.
Representing HBCU excellence, Cobie Durant is this year’s HBCU Player Spotlight honoree. A rising star in the NFL, Durant’s story is proof that faith and determination can open doors, no matter where you come from. Historically, HBCU players have had to fight for recognition in the league, and Durant is carrying the torch for the next generation of talent, showing that God’s plan always makes a way.
Also being recognized is Jared Verse, who is receiving the Rising Star Award for his outstanding talent and faith-fueled journey. With a name that already sounds like it came straight from scripture, Verse has been making waves as a top defensive prospect, proving that when God orders your steps, no one can block your blessings. His story is still being written, but one thing is clear—his future is bright, covered, and highly favored.
