NFL champion, Ekow Boye-Doe, says winning the Superbowl has given him the attention and platform to make the impact he has always dreamed of.
Ekow Boye-Doe played six games in his debut season for Kansas City and then went on to win the Super Bowl Championship in 2024.
The 24-year-old is in Ghana for a short family visit.
Accompanied by his brother, parents, and Kansas City teammate Truman Jones, Boye-Doe engaged with children at Rockies International School, sharing moments of inspiration and offering NFL insights to bolster their skills and confidence in the sport.
In an interview with JoySports, Boye-Doe said that he is fulfilling his dream of making a difference, attributing this opportunity to his success as an NFL champion.
"It feels awesome, I knew I was going to have that big platform in the Superbowl so I want to make sure that I brought the Ghanaian flag to represent and just to show where I'm from.
"I'm glad I did because I got a little bit of attention which helped me to be able to come here and have some connections to some people that I can talk to and give back to society.. I can't thank God enough for giving me the platform to inspire all these kids."
Ekow Boye-Doe was born in Accra, Ghana, on November 4, 1999.
At a young age, his family moved to Lawrence, Kansas, in the United States.
Following an invitation to Kansas City's rookie minicamp, Ekow took advantage of the opportunity and joined the NFL in 2023 as an undrafted free agent with the Chiefs.
