After graduation, the two were offered scholarships to play in college.

Devaughn accepted an offer to go to Florida State University, and that's where he tragically died during pre-season conditioning.

Devard, who now plays in the NFL and was on the Kansas City Chiefs last season, created the As One Foundation in honor of his brother. It will present $10,000 in scholarships to high school seniors in Fort Bend ISD.

Applications are currently being accepted through May 31, and will be awarded at a scholarship luncheon in July, according to a news release.

The “Devard & Devaughn Darling High School Senior Award” is presented to students "who exemplify outstanding talent, good character, high academic achievement, and community service."

Ten students entering college in the fall will receive a $1,000 scholarship.
