CBS Honors Zaevion Dobson During Super Bowl Pregame

Here is the feature on Zaevion Dobson that aired on CBS on February 7, 2016 during the Super Bowl 50 Pregame Show. 


The segment was introduced by NY Jets WR Brandon Marshall, who came to Knoxville to meet Zack Dobson. Marshall is a ten year NFL veteran, and is also working as a commentator. Producers and crew from CBS made several trips to Knoxville from New York in order to gather footage and interviews. Aerial MOB of Los Angleles provided the overhead drone footage. Brief audio clips from WKCS Radio's broadcasts of Fulton Football were also used in the piece. An incredible amount of work went into producing this documentary, including a great deal of organizational planning by Coach Rob Black. It is a fitting tribute to Zaevion, who has become known as "Knoxville's Hero." Countless people will have an opportunity to be inspired by his story.  It is our hope that this video will continue to spread so that people around the globe will remember the name Zaevion Dobson. 

On behalf of everyone at Fulton High School, we want to thank CBS and Brandon Marshall for their help in making this tribute possible.
