Former NFL defensive lineman Ziggy Hood is being hailed as a hero after talking to a troubled young man at a Texas high school and preventing a potential tragedy.

Hood, who played for five teams over his 10-year career, works as a biology teacher and defensive line coach at Palo Duro High School in Amarillo, Texas. Last week, Hood noticed a student who appeared to be struggling emotionally. The 36-year-old took the time to talk to the young man, an act that may have saved many lives.

Evander Ziggy Hood of The Pittsburgh Steelers conducts a youth football camp at Tec de Monterrey on June 12, 2010, in Mexico City, Mexico. “That’s the biggest thing that AISD talks about,” Mims said. “Trainings on is just knowing who’s supposed to be where, and protecting the people that are supposed to be in keeping people off campus that aren’t supposed to be on campus.”
