NFL Player Josh Andrews Supports Project Sleep with 2021 My Cause My Cleats

Please join us in thanking Josh Andrews (#68) of the Atlanta Falcons for raising his voice and supporting Project Sleep via the 2021 NFL’s My Cause My Cleats program (#MyCauseMyCleats on social media). For the second year in a row, Andrews chose to champion sleep health and sleep disorders awareness with Project Sleep! See Andrews’ 2020 Project Sleep cleats here.

When I first got diagnosed, I didn’t know anybody with narcolepsy, so I was in the dark about this whole narcolepsy thing… Finding Project Sleep and their community of people raising awareness and advocating, I felt like this was my calling, something I could get behind to help make a difference.”
