Project 18

You've arrived at Project 18 -
where being healthy is just part
of the game.

I wasn't always an NFL quarterback. At one time, I was a kid just like you. I went to school, played with my brothers, and hung out with my friends.

But I was pretty lucky. I had a great team. It included people like my mom and dad, my brothers, my teachers, and coaches. They taught me how to live healthy, and make good choices. With their help, I learned that being active and eating right would help me stay healthy, so I could pursue my goals.

And I think you'll agree it has worked out pretty well.

If you look around you, you'll see you have the makings of a great team, too. Parents and teachers, family members, coaches, and even friends. And here at Project 18, you're part of my team. We approach healthy living the same way I approach every football game. We win the right way, and have a good time doing it.
