NFL running back stops by Tippah school to meet with players

Players at Walnut High school got a special visitor this week as NFL running back Keith Ford stopped by to meet with members of the football team.

Ford, a Buffalo Bills running back, stopped by with his friend and speed coach Jason Holmes, Director of Parisi Speed school in Collierville.

Keith had a standout career in the SEC for Texas A&M before signing with the Bills and moving to a starting running back position last season.

The Wildcat players and coaches took the opportunity to gather knowledge from a professional player.

It is sure to be a memory that will last for the Tippah County athletes.
