We all know about the great things professional football players are doing on the field. But it’s rare that we hear about the great things they’re doing off the field. Both Buffalo Bills tight end Marqueis Gray and Minnesota Vikings receiver Charles Johnson help restore our faith in professional athletes as role models.
Mackenzie Moretter, 10, was planning on having a birthday party surrounded by friends and family. After her mom Jenny realized that kids were canceling and fearing that none would show up, she took to Facebook to rally a party to help celebrate Mackenzie’s birthday.
That’s when both Gray and Johnson heard about it and showed up to help celebrate.
