Early in my NFL career, I had the honor of playing with Jon Kitna, Josh McCown, and Mike Furrey. All of them were warriors on the field, as competitive as they come. Dirt, sweat, blood, and determination filled our practices, which is normal in the National Football League. However, there was one thing uniquely different about playing with these guys. Until then, I had never been around men who would fight like crazy on the field and then love and care for their wives in such a powerful way.

Have you ever thought about how a husband should treat his wife? There has been a lot written about what real men do. I can tell you this: Real men love their wives. I learned that from Jon, Josh, Mike, and the Detroit Lions’ team chaplain Dave Wilson. From them, I learned these 5 ways real men treat their wives.
