Sometimes sports are bigger than the game on the field. That is the case for Bengals' Devon Still.

Still has a 4-year old daughter was diagnosed with stage 4 pediatric cancer, and the Bengals kept him on their practice squad so he could maintain paying for her treatments.

When Still was called up to be on the Bengals 53 man roster and was dressed for the game against the Patriots in New England, the Patriots did one of the nicer gestures you will ever see:

The team paid tribute to Still on the big screen before the game and had all of their cheerleaders in Still jerseys.

Still took to Instagram to give his daughter a pep talk before she went in for surgery two weeks ago.

I can do nothing but applaud Still and the Patriots!
