DEVON STILL'S DAUGHTER
Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Devon Still decided in June that he would stop playing football when he learned his daughter, Leah Siri, had stage 4 cancer. He also shaved his head when she started chemo and vowed not to grow his hair back until his daughter was able to. The Bengals allowed all sales of his jersey to be donated to cancer research. The jersey's raised close to a million dollars. Other teams were touched by the story and pitched in to help. New Orleans Saint's coach Sean Peyton bought 100 jerseys and donated them to local Cincinnati children when he heard the story. New England Patriot's owner Herb Craft also donated $25,000 to help out as well. These gestures are proof that their still are good people in this world.
