TMZ report: Seattle Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette hands out burgers to homeless in Dallas

Seattle Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette did a good deed as he was leaving the hospital in Dallas last week, according to TMZ, which reports that he handed out “100 cheeseburgers to homeless people.”

TMZ reports further that: “Lockette and his parents were leaving the Dallas hospital where the NFL star underwent surgery for a hit he took against the Cowboys when they passed through an area with a large homeless population … and Ricardo decided he needed to do something.”

Lockette’s father, Earl, is also quoted saying that the decision to buy the burgers from a nearby McDonald’s proved “therapeutic” for Lockette, as well, as he begins his recovery from neck surgery.
