Former Rutgers star and current Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco showed everyone what the NFL is supposed to be about. Following Sunday's win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC divisional round, Pacheco went viral on social media for an awesome interaction with a young Chiefs fan.
After the Chiefs posted a 27-24 win over the Bills, advancing to the AFC Championship Game, Pacheco found a young Kansas City fan in the lower section of the stadium.
The running back gave the youngster an autograph. When the kid also asked for Pacheco's gloves, he had no problem taking them off and handing them over.
As you can tell in the video, it made the young fan's night even better.
These are the kind of moments we love to see in the NFL.
