The mother of four told FOX19 that the defensive end stopped Yeager's husband and asked if he could buy their gifts, saying, "I want to bless you and your family tonight."

Gilberry bestowed the family with a Playstation 4 and an assortment of video games for the children, which was on their wish list.

The heartwarming moment took everyone by surprise. An Instagram user who snapped a pic of the touching act, wrote that the mother was moved to tears:

I saw Wallace walking in the store with these kids and dad chasing after him. When I walked by a few mins later, I heard the dad and kids going crazy. Later when he walked by I told him that was a bad ass move. He said thanks, "everyone needs to be blessed."


The Yeager family could not be more grateful.
