Derrick Coleman who is Deaf, Seahawks fullback stars in commercial that inspires...

The below video is a commercial for Duracell, but it's the message of Derrick Coleman who is the first legally deaf offensive player to ever play in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks...

After not being drafted in 2012 despite a stellar career at UCLA, Coleman made the Seahawks this season. In his first game with the team, he had 3 catches for 30 yards, and he also caught a touchdown pass against the Saints.

When the world tells you "no", you have two options: You can roll over and quit -- or you can trust your power. Derrick Coleman, running back for the Seattle Seahawks, trusted the power within. 

Although he's deaf, he never let adversity stand in his way, on his road to the NFL. Share to inspire others to trust their power within and achieve their dreams. #TrustYourPower
