It hasn’t been long but Arizona Cardinals rookie offensive lineman Paris Johnson, the team’s first-round pick in the draft this year, has found a way to participate in community work.

The team announced Johnson is holding a summer water drive.

He is teaming up with a local bottler, Swire Coca-Cola and will distribute more than 8,000 water bottles to the residents of the UMOM New Day Center on Sunday, July 2 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
