HOUSTON<\/strong> \u2013 Growing up in Virginia, Texans defensive tackle Tim Settle Jr. and his family experienced tough times.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why it resonated strongly with him to give back Saturday at the Steven Radack Community Center.<\/p>\n

Settle helped distribute a week of meals to 100 Houston area families in advance of the Thanksgiving holiday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about giving back,\u201d Settle told KPRC 2. \u201cGrowing up in a little poverty, growing up with a little adversity, I feel like this kind of stuff makes players, when they get later in their life, you look back on the struggle, and it\u2019s a blessing to overcome it. It\u2019s also a blessing to help people that\u2019s going through the struggle as well, so that\u2019s just the biggest message.\u201d<\/p>\n

Settle was joined by his father, Tim Sr., his son, Tim, and representatives from his agency, including executive Emanuel Drakes and Madi Wingert.<\/p>\n

\u201cTim is dedicated both on and off the field,\u201d said Drakes, who works closely with Andy Ross, Settle\u2019s agent. \u201cBut his true focus is making a meaningful impact in his community and we support his efforts 100 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Settle was overjoyed to see all of the smiles on people\u2019s faces.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was amazing,\u201d Settle said. \u201cNot only was you getting the turkey, but you was getting food for the week. I feel like we was able to help a lot of people today,(0:55)and I feel like we was able to contribute, and this was a successful event today, and I\u2019m so happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Settle held his son \u2018Baby Tim,\u2019 in his arms and called him the \u2018Next Phenom.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s going to be a superstar: Class of 2035,\u201d Settle said.<\/p>\n

His favorite Thanksgiving dishes: \u201cI like sweet potatoes, and I like macaroni. I mix them together, and I eat it with some chicken or some turkey. That\u2019s all I really care to eat on Thanksgiving.\u201d<\/p>\n
