Product Review

Payton's humble nature, unmatched talent and memorable smile made him an everlasting image in the NFL's history and standard of excellence in the minds of players and fans both past and present. Yet behind the accolades, the life of an individual often described as Superman included challenging moments both during his career and while adjusting to life after football.

The NFL Films-produced Walter Payton: A Football Life examines the life of Sweetness and the legacy of the Bears running back, built from an unyielding never die easy will that defined him from the days of running hills in suburban Chicago to his untimely passing in 1999.
