From sharing the meaning behind his name and where it came from, to reflecting on life-changing losses like the passing of his big brother, Don Elway opened up in a way we rarely see. We also dug into the classic film Boys N the Hood, a movie he personally chose to break down—and trust us, we got into how that film mirrors his life, his neighborhood, and his mindset.
