Derick Hall feels blessed to be a Super Bowl champion, not just for winning the title with the Seattle Seahawks, but also for being alive. Born with a 1% chance of survival after being born four months premature in 2001, Hall's journey to the championship is truly inspiring.
At just 24 years old, Hall has defied the odds and achieved his dream of becoming a Super Bowl champion. But it wasn't always easy. He weighed less than 3lb when he was born and was on life support when his mother refused to have it discontinued. Miraculously, he made it through his early childhood and went on to become one of the top defensive players in the league.
Hall's gratitude for being alive is palpable. "Everyone knows my story, what it took for me to get here," he said. "I'm very blessed - kudos to Mom. That was a special moment after the game." His mother, who has always been his biggest supporter, was visibly emotional as Hall hugged her on the field.
Hall's success is not just a testament to his hard work and dedication, but also to the sacrifices made by his family. "She never gave up," he said. "Just being able to play football and what this game has done for me and my life and my family... I always love and respect playing this game, and I feel like I show that every single time I step on the field."
Seattle Seahawks coach Aden Durde, who became the first overseas coach to win a Super Bowl, credited his team's success to their well-planned strategy. "We put a plan together and the guys executed at an elite level," he said.
The Seahawks' victory marks the second Super Bowl win in franchise history, and it's clear that this team is on top of their game. With Hall leading the charge, they dominated the New England Patriots 29-13, claiming two sacks in the process.
As for Hall, he just wants to enjoy this moment with his family and friends. "It's an unbelievable story," he said. "To be in this place, it's hallowed ground."

man what a story! i'm so hyped for derick hall, like seriously born with like 1% chance of survival & makes it to super bowl 
his mom is literally the real MVP 
can't believe she never gave up on him & he's now a super bowl champ 
i love how humble he is too, no big head 
coach durde said they had a well-planned strategy but honestly, derick hall just being alive is a miracle 
. So, was Derick Hall really born four months premature with only a 1% chance of survival? And did his mom refuse to have life support discontinued for him when he was just a baby? That seems super tough on her 
...
. And his mom refusing to let him go? That's just cold, hard reality 
. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for the guy and all, but let's not sugarcoat it 
. He had a lot of help along the way, from his team to his coaches... this isn't just about one person's journey 
.
And to think he made it through his childhood, became one of the top defensive players in the league... it's just insane. His mom's determination and support mean the world to him, and it's clear that family has been a huge part of his success. Coach Durde's strategy may have played a big role in their win, but let's be real, Hall's story is what makes this Super Bowl championship truly special. 
. the seahawks' win is a testament to their hard work and teamwork, but let's be real, derick hall is the real MVP 
, I've got tea on why Derick Hall's mom was so emotional after the game 
️. The fact that he's now a Super Bowl champion is just a blessing from above 
. I'm rooting for him all the way, and I know his family must be so proud 
.
. It's lovely to see their bond grow even stronger as they celebrate this incredible achievement together.
!! i cant even believe he made it through being born four months early lol 
and then to become a super bowl champ at 24?? 
?? thats crazy!
on their super bowl win! they totally deserve it 
, but he made it through and slayed the football game!!! 
. Congrats to the Seattle Seahawks on their second Super Bowl win, and can't wait to see what the future holds for Derick Hall! 
He's literally defied all the odds and achieved his dream of becoming a Super Bowl champ! Born with like a 1% chance of survival, he was on life support at birth and weighed less than 3lb lol what even is that?! 
Seattle Seahawks are on fire! 
but for real though, what if it was all part of the plan? what if his birth was meant to be a setup for this whole Super Bowl thing? 
let's not forget, Aden Durde is like an international coach and he just happens to win a Super Bowl with a team that already has a player who defied the odds of survival... too much of a coincidence if u ask me 
especially after everything he went through.
. And let's be real, his mom is basically a superhero too 
.
