Devin is adopted by the United States Naval Academy Football team! He joins a brotherhood of incredible young men who will bring him extra love, support, and friendship. Devin's adoption ceremony was an experience like no other! He met Jaclyn and Denis, signed a Signing Day certificate, received super cool team gear, was given a football signed by his teammates, and got to know his 160+ new brothers! We are incredibly grateful to Navy Football and the USNA for opening their hearts and team to Devin. We cannot wait to see everything to come for this special relationship! Welcome to the FOJ Family!
