In 1981, Joe Delaney,a poor man from Haughton, Louisiana, who could run 100 yards in 9.4 seconds was drafted in the second round by the Kansas City Chiefs. Joe was their star running back, leading the Chiefs to their first winning season in ten years. He was 1981’s rookie of the year, started in the Pro Bowl, set four franchise records and was voted team MVP. Joe was also a generous and humble man who cared about the needs of others before himself. This is the story of his life, and heroic death, attempting to save the lives of three drowning boys. He managed to save one. Please watch all of this, share with your friends and family. Time has dimmed the memory of Delaney’s heroic deed. We must remember him, and honor his sacrifice, and perhaps strive to be more like him as a society.

They are out there, we just hear about the screw ups. I think Jeremy Renner is like this. He was gravely injured last winter while helping a stranded motorist. Last night my husband was watching a show he started where they rehab a fleet of vehicles he bought to be used by communities and non profits that need them. His injury has halted season 2 though. There are genuinely good people out there, I am just so sad the world lost Joe. He truly is the best person I have ever researched. Thanks for watching.

When he was playing he had some relitives here in Chetopa Kansas , the Woodsons.I watched Joe on tv and OJ and those guys had nothing on this guy and on top of that he was a hero and a class act.

Chiefs need to retire his number and prepare a remembrance video in his honor since his story is an incredible one and sets a high bar. He set a rare example of true selflessness among pro athletes and needs recognition.

I watched a video made by Chiefs Nation when researching him, meaning the team had it made. While they haven’t “officially” retired his number I will be very surprised if they ever use it again. There is also a 30 for 30 short about him too I was able to access on the ESPN plus app. Only time I’ve ever used it! It came in a bundle, lol.

Same (graduated H.S. in '81). Even tho a CFL fan, I did follow a fair bit of NFL too, then. I could NEVER call an athlete a 'hero' for athletic accomplishments. This man was a true hero.

Too bad instead of stupid letters from presidents & some of the awards & memorials everyone hadn't sent cheques with a 37 on it & as many Zeros afterwards as they could afford!!! $37 - $37,000 - 370,000 etc!!! Sure would have helped his wife & Daughters a heck of a lot more!!! 😢❤😢❤😢❤

It’s possible people did, but that information wasn’t available for me to know. I wondered if the NFL did anything for his family, again I don’t know. Either way this was so sad 😭. I had never heard of him, but when I travel I always Google who might be buried nearby. He was buried 15 minutes from my hotel when I went to Gibsland. I’m so glad I now know his story and could share it.

Yes maybe some did but logic says it couldn't have been any great amount total or she wouldn't have had to sell the house. It was certainly a nice one but not like he'd financed a million dollar mansion before he even got the big contract he was certainly going to get because he was a fantastic player. Thanks for sharing his story and I wish his widow & kids & grandkids etc as much happiness as possible. May he RIP. I sure hope the boy he saved did turn his life around!!! EVERYONE who survives a tragedy like that definitely needs counseling and help!!!
