Houston Texans at Green Bay Packers

One of the best players on the Houston Texans is their standout wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. While Hopkins hasn’t had as many catches as last year with Brock Osweiler throwing him the ball, he is still Houston’s most explosive weapon.

Hopkins will being wearing these spikes to help raise awareness to hopefully end domestic abuse once and for all. One cleat will be pink with blue accents, while the other will be inverted to showcase domestic equality.

The Green Bay Packers are playing in a huge game against the Houston Texans on Sunday afternoon. Maybe wide receiver Davante Adams will have a few big plays in the receiving game?

Either way, he will be showing his support of AIDS awareness. He wants people to be safe and get regularly tested. He has a RIP Eazy-E, a crucial member of NWA who passed away from AIDS complications back in 1995 after his condition went untreated and undiagnosed.

Denver Broncos at Jacksonville Jaguars

Von Miller knows a thing or two about locating the quarterback in the opposing backfield. Miller is one of the best sack artists in the NFL today. He almost always is seen wearing glasses when he is not on the field.

Miller will be supporting his foundation SupportVon’s Vision, a non-profit to ensure that kids who need glasses are able to get them. He is one of the many players using his spikes to help push his foundation this weekend. Vision is important to Miller.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles is supporting several causes with his cleats on Sunday. On one cleat, it will be supporting the Blake Bortles Foundation, which strives to help special needs children lead normal lives.

Bortles’ other shoe will be in support of the first responders. He had to ask special permission to be granted the right to have the shield on his cleat.
