Chris Maragos is a professional football player in the NFL who has played for the San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks and most recently, the Philadelphia Eagles. He is a 2x SuperBowl Champion and stopped by our Wellness Center to tour, learn more about our program and autograph a football for a special 9-year-old boy who is traveling 11 hours from Alabama to donate his hair. Football players are like superheroes to kids and we thank Mr. Maragos for fulfilling this child’s wish!
