Watch: Falcons DT Grady Jarrett surprises local bullying victim with visit

The Falcons have struggled this season, but it hasn’t been defensive tackle Grady Jarrett’s fault. Despite the team’s 1-3 start, Jarrett remains a leader both on and off the field.

When he heard about a middle school football player in Eatonton who was a victim of extreme bullying, Jarrett surprised the boy while he was getting a tour of local news station WSB-TV.

You can see it all in the segment below, as shared by the station’s sports director, Zack Klein.

Jarrett has previously spoken out against bullying, so it’s not unlike him to do something like this. He has stepped up on the field since receiving his mega-extension in the offseason, and he’s still trying to make a difference in the community.
