Posted Jun 9, 2020
Hakeem Nicks retired after the 2015 season after a 7-year NFL career that included a Super Bowl ring with the New York Giants and 356 career receptions for over 5,000 yards. His legacy now lives on in the Kenan Football Center after a generous contribution to name the wide receiver meeting room. "It's always good to be able to give back," says Nicks. (GoHeels.com)
