NFL pledges $1M to Hurricane Florence relief efforts

The NFL will contribute $1 million to relief efforts in the Carolinas and other areas affected by Hurricane Florence.

"The NFL family sends its support to the individuals, families, and communities affected by Hurricane Florence," commissioner Roger Goodell said in a release. "Natural disasters like these are devastating. As communities in and around the Carolinas recover and rebuild, we hope these funds will provide some measure of relief in the days, weeks, and months ahead."

The death toll from the storm hit 13 as of Saturday night and hundreds of thousands are without power.
