Steelers wide receivers vow to #StandWithRayden in video

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Ryan Switzer is truly a class act in the NFL. After being moved by a story and video of a young man with special needs being bullied by other kids, Switzer rallied his fellow wide receivers to share a video message for Rayden and put it on Twitter in hopes he would see it.

Switzer is joined in the video by Donte Moncrief, Johhny Holton, Diontae Johnson and James Washington as wide receivers who stand with Rayden. I am not going to share the video circulating Twitter where the kids are attacking and bullying Rayden — and autistic 12-year old who is deaf in one ear — because they don’t deserve that sort of attention. But we appreciate guys like the Steelers’ wide receivers who recognize wrong in the world and don’t stay silent.
