Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson shared a heartfelt story about his late father, Harrison Wilson III, who tragically passed away in 2010 at age 54 after a prolonged battle with diabetes.

His father's death came at the tail end of his collegiate career, and Wilson recently opened up about how his father's passing helped him change his outlook on life and always strive to bring positivity to the football field and locker room.

"When [my dad] passed away, I remember the next morning hearing like, 'The sun still comes up in the morning'... No matter what we go through in life," Wilson said during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. "Especially when you're 1-of-32 guys... why would I be negative?"
