Distinguished Athlete – Kyle Arrington
Kyle Arrington defied the odds as an undrafted free agent from the University of Hofstra,
earning a starting position in the NFL through unwavering conviction and drive. From
humble beginnings at Gwynn Park High School, Arrington's relentless work ethic and
resilience propelled him to a storied professional football career spanning a decade.
Arrington played in two Super Bowls, including a victory in Super Bowl XLIX (49). He also
tied the NFL record for most interceptions for the 2011 season.
Raised with strong values and a supportive community, Arrington recognizes the
importance of giving back. Since retiring from the NFL in 2017, his mission has been to
inspire and impact others. In 2019, he founded The E.V.O.L.V.E. Foundation, a nonprofit
dedicated to empowering youth to embrace learning, explore new horizons and overcome
obstacles.
Arrington’s passion to help others extends to his role as an author, with his children’s
book "Piece It Together!" promoting teamwork and STEM education. He has also
ventured into entrepreneurship with "American Fitness," a brand empowering individuals
and communities to reach their full potential.
As a devoted husband, proud father of three, entrepreneur and community leader,
Arrington embodies a consistent message: Our actions and interactions can shape
generations to come.
