Last year, Martellus Bennett played for the New England Patriots. He was a part of the Patriots’ historic comeback, against the Atlanta Falcons that left “The Simpsons” unbeaten. In fact, despite Atlanta’s hot start, the score was even eerily close.

Martellus Bennett would sign with the Green Bay Packers, following his championship run. The offseason has seen Bennett do more than make business decisions. He also has been active, giving back to those in need, and BET did not overlook this.

On the red carpet of the 2017 BET Awards, Martellus Bennett stopped, for a moment to speak with Hip-HopVibe.com. Speaking with @MJThatMediaGurl, Martellus Bennett spoke on the BET Shining Light Award. He also addressed his philanthropic efforts.
