Two young boys who recently lost their father were consoled on Christmas Day when Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford paid them a visit to the home to give them gifts for them.
Stafford who has been battling a back injury that sidelined him this football season must have heard through the social media circles or word of mouth that the two young boys admire his work on the football field even though Satfford has been on the sidelines.
Stafford's Christmas visit to two of his young fans at their home bringing them gifts will ease the pain of the two boys losing their dad recently since losing a relative during the Christmas holidays is very painful for anyone to go through in our lifetimes.
It is nice to see some National Football League stars assist people in need during their tough times.

@just4him I know that there is a competition in the NFL for players to make a difference in their communities to win the Walter Payton Man Of The Year Award which is given around Super Bowl week.
