Frank Ross, the Houston Texans' special teams coordinator, embodies a legacy of giving back that stems from his family. Inspired by his mother’s altruism, Ross turned his passion for haircuts into a charitable mission, providing haircuts to Houston's homeless population through his non-profit, Coach's Cuts. The initiative not only helps those in need but also involves Texans players, including linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, who himself faced homelessness as a child. Ross's commitment to his community has grown, aiming to expand services year-round with donations from local businesses.

Ross’s journey also highlights his resourcefulness from his college years, where he famously auditioned for 'Deal or No Deal' to raise money for new uniforms. He successfully turned a game show opportunity into $14,000, which he used to benefit his John Carroll University football team. As Ross prepares for his fourth annual haircut event, he reflects on the importance of community support, stating, 'It’s special...We’re able to give them some hope.'
