Only one Australian can say he holds the NFL Superbowl title ring, and that's Jesse Williams.
Born in Brisbane, to Indigenous Australian parents and dreaming of playing football. Jesse was the first Indigenous Australian to receive a scholarship to play college football over in the US. Shortly after signing with the Seattle Seahawks, his NFL career was over before it even had a chance to get started - Jesse was diagnosed with kidney cancer at the age of 24.
It's tough for any athletes coming to the end of their sporting careers, let alone having to deal with that as soon as they've made it onto the stage they dream of playing on. So how did Jesse deal with it?Find out more about Jesse's work here:
