Falcons' Jamon Brown Helps Pay for Funeral of 1-Month-Old De'Anthony Lee Trice

Atlanta Falcons offensive guard Jamon Brown helped cover the funeral expenses for De'Anthony Lee Trice, a one-month-old baby who died after his father allegedly punched and dropped him, according to Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com.

According to police, Anthony Trice has been indicted on charges of first-degree murder and criminal abuse after allegedly striking his son in a "post-video game rage."

Brown heard about De'Anthony's death from the executive director of his foundation, Danny Mosby, and through his foundation offered to pay for the funeral services.

"I was getting off the field when my executive director sent me the story, and this was before we decided to step up and partner with Louisville Children's Hospital Foundation.
