K.J. Osborn is known primarily for playing football, but his heroic deed in an awful situation last Sunday is rightfully getting a lot more attention.
As he would detail with ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Minnesota Vikings WR rescued a person from a burning car. Per Osborn, he had been riding in the back of an Uber when his driver noticed someone had crashed their vehicle on the side of the road. Osborn, the driver, and two others jumped into the fray to help. Osborn maintained he didn’t know the extent of the person’s injuries but believed their intervention saved his life.
On Tuesday, Osborn, while being interviewed on Good Morning Football, described the situation as something that “definitely puts your mind in different places.”
Osborn likely referenced the uplifting message he shared on his Twitter Monday night. The wideout had shared a few photos of the vehicle and crash scene. More importantly, he discussed his reaction on the fly to just be there for another human in their moment of need.

Wow. How special. That will stop you in your tracks.
Let’s rewind the critical part of that quote:
“Most of the time, the saying goes, ‘wrong place, wrong time.’ But this time, I believe God had me, us, at the right place at the exact right time.”
Indeed. Sometimes it is just about being in the right place at the right time for another person.
