Derrick Coleman is the first deaf player in the NFL, this amazing guy is the fullback player with the Seattle Seahawks and the lucky girl dating Derrick is the lovely Suzi Mellano!!!
Derrick Coleman became deaf when he was three, he faced many complications, but he never lost his faith, his faith has send him to places and given opportunities he never dreamed of. He has become not only one of the best players in the NFL but one of the dearest among fans around the nation if not the world!
Last season when the Seahawks won the Super Bowl we wondered if Coleman had a girlfriend, which he did not, but this year things have changed!
Derrick Coleman’s girlfriend is the utterly beautiful sports reporter Suzi Mellano, this is her story!
22-year-old Suzi Mellano was born in California to parents Valerie and Michael Mellano.
Suzi graduated from Fallbrook high School and studied sports broadcasting at Texas Christian University.
Our lovely NFL wag was a sports reporter with Cape cod Baseball League between May, 2012 and August, 2013.
After she left Suzi became an intern at Fox Sports Southwest and then last year an intern at Mlb Productions.
Suzi Mellano is currently a sports reporter at Frog Vision (TCU Athletics Media Team), and with ThePostGame.com/ ThriveWire.com
We are extremely happy for them, Suzi is lovely, not only gorgeous, but she is the sweetest girl!!
