Deon Butler achieved his dream of playing in the NFL. But behind that success was a lifelong struggle with undiagnosed dyslexia. A diagnosis at age 27 finally gave Deon answers and set his life on a new course - and inspired him to become a national advocate for others with dyslexia and learning disabilities.
