Mr. HARIDOPOLOS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with great pride to recognize two remarkable athletes in our community, C.J. Gardner- Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles and Jawaan Taylor of the Kansas City Chiefs, who are facing off this weekend in Super Bowl LIX.

These two extraordinary athletes, who are actually cousins, started their journeys at Cocoa High School and continued their football years at the University of Florida. They are now making their hometown proud as we watch them take opposite sides of the field in the biggest game of the year.

Their story is one of hard work, perseverance, and excellence, values that define Brevard County. This year continues a remarkable condition as it marks the fifth consecutive year that Brevard County has been represented in the Super Bowl, proving that our community is the home to some of the best athletes in the country.

To Jawaan, Go Chiefs.

To C.J., Go Birds.

Good luck to both of them. Their hometown is always behind them.

Go Tigers.
