The team’s cheerleading squad made it abundantly clear how much they care. During Sunday's game, the Cincinnati Bengals played the Patriots and the New England team’s cheerleaders all wore Bengals’s jerseys with the number 75 printed across them.
It was certainly no coincidence that the digits belong to none other than Devon Still. New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton purchased 100 of the jerseys and the Patriots’ cheerleaders were more than happy to wear and perform in them.
A tear streaming down Still’s cheek seems to depict he was moved by the gesture. Still later remarked “We came here to play a football game with an opposing team and I didn’t expect them to show the support that they did today…It shows this fight is more than about football.”
The Patriots will also donate $25,000 to Cincinnati Children's Medical Center in Still’s daughter’s name.
