NFL player returns home to host camp

Rashad Jennings held Camp 180 at Liberty

LYNCHBURG, Va. – NFL running back Rashad Jennings was in Lynchburg Saturday teaching kids the skills they need to be a football star.

It's the third year Jenning's foundation has hosted "Camp 180" in the Hill City, where Jennings grew up. Jennings is also fresh off a stint on "Dancing with the Stars" where he says he received a lot of support from his hometown. Now he says he has a message for his young fans.

"I want these kids to be able to take the work ethic. You know I'm not the most talented guy, I'm not the most special guy in the world at all, but I will put my work ethic against anybody, any day," Jennings said.

Jennings had the biggest turnout yet for his camp this year. He's currently free-agent, and to the dismay of his fans, did not give any clues about who he may play with next.
