As the Chicago Bears held their final practice on Saturday in preparation for their Sunday showdown with the New England Patriots at Soldier Field, one of their players got a big surprise.
Danny Trevathan's grandmother, Dorothy McElroy, has been battling cancer for some time now. And so she hasn't had the opportunity to watch Trevathan play at Soldier Field during his time in Chicago. And so the Bears' organization and head coach Matt Nagy decided to take matters into their own hands. Watch the video below.
I'm not crying. You're crying. Trevathan tweeted his gratitude afterwards:
Family is bigger than football -- something that's preached by coaches and players every day. And this is a fantastic gesture by Coach Nagy and the Bears' organization. Bravo. And you can bet the Bears are going to get a big time performance from Trevathan tomorrow, in front of the home fans, and especially in front of his grandmother. Bear Down. Wishing the best of luck and a speedy recovery to Dorothy.
