Leading up to Super Bowl LVI, Rams and Bengals players had been vocal about their faith in God.

Rams running back Sony Michel shared in an interview that God has been working in his life.

God’s “been working tremendously. He’s been doing a lot of work in my life, I believe, this year, especially with my transition here to the Rams — not playing much in the beginning and trusting Him,” Michel said during a media session last week, according to Sports Spectrum. “Trusting my faith in Him and knowing that He put me in this position for a reason.”

Bengals kicker Evan McPherson, who helped his team get to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1988, testified during his media availability last week that his strengths in football come from his faith in God and practice. 

“I lean on my faith a lot when it comes to football and just my life in general,” he said, according to Sports Spectrum. “I really feel like I can’t compete my best without it. I know everything happens for a reason and I know God’s going to be there to help me throughout the ups and downs. So as long as I keep Him in my life close to me, I know there’s nothing I can’t do.”
