They Refused to Score Touchdown

This middle school footballer refused to score a touchdown for a heartbreaking reason. Because they have an autistic teammate.

Hello.

A kid who struggles with boundaries.

Hug.

We thought it'd be cool to do something for him.

He was part of our team and he meant a lot to us.

So players secretly planned their remarkable play to honor Keith.

But like the coaches didn't know anything about it.

So their plan was to try to get as close to the goal line as possible without scoring. Never heard of a team coming up with a plan to not score.

It's just like to make someone's day.

Which brings us to part two of their play.

Did he just score a touchdown?

In the middle of the chaos, they handed the ball to Keith so he could score a touchdown.

From being pretty much a nobody to making everyone's day. From being pretty much a nobody to making everyone's day.

Awesome.
