Radio

In the 1970s, James Robert "Radio" Kennedy, a 23-year-old intellectually disabled man, lives alone with his mother, who, as a nurse, spends much of the day at work. Radio spends much of his day roaming the town and pushing a shopping cart, which he uses to collect anything interesting he finds. Coach Harold Jones frees Radio from a group of players who had tied him up and punishes the wrongdoers by making them run extra wind sprints after practice. Jones takes it upon himself to assist in Radio's care and gives him his nickname because of his penchant for listening to the radio. Radio begins assisting Coach Jones on the football team and inspires the team before each game as a mascot-type figure.
