The NFL star unafraid to speak out

Not by the Playbook

Available for over a year

DeAndre Levy is a star of the Detroit Lion's American football team, but it's not just on the field that he excels. Never afraid to speak out, he's dedicated to educating and changing the 'macho culture' that exists in American football and wider society. DeAndre has joined the effort of other organisations and individuals across the city of Detroit to test more than 11,000 neglected rape kits and investigate and prosecute the resulting cases as part of the Enough SAID programme. The 91¸£ÀûÉç's Joel Hammer has been to Detroit to meet DeAndre and Peg Tallet of the Michigan Women's Foundation and enoughsaiddetroit.org Photo: DeAndre in action for the Detroit Lions Credit: Getty Images
