Watch: John Fassel reunites with Tavon Austin, helps Cowboys WR warm up

Los Angeles Rams special teams coordinator John Fassel is one of the most well-respected coaches in the game, spending the last seven years with the franchise. He helped coach up Tavon Austin, who was a talented punt returner with the Rams, before Los Angeles traded him to the Cowboys.

On Saturday night before their preseason game, Fassel reunited with Austin. He helped the wide receiver warm up on the field before kickoff, which was a kind gesture by the special teams coach.

Not that you needed further evidence of what a great person @RamsNFL special teams coach Bones Fassel is…

But here he is warming up his former player — now a member of the Cowboys — Tavon Austin. Just because. #Respect pic.twitter.com/d8Ur98EtFj

This was a routine the two had while they were together with the Rams, so it was great to see them get back to their old ways.
