The Yards Between Us: A Memoir of Life, Love, and Football by R.K. Russell

emotional informative reflective fast-paced

3.0

I thought this was just a story of a football player and had no idea who this man was, but now I’m a huge fan! He shares his upbringing and how he got into football along with how he came to live his true self and be an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community he proudly is a part of. He gets detailed about his love life and football that felt a little repetitive so some parts I maybe hard skimmed to get the gist but overall this was a solid memoir.
