Oakland lineman Menelik Watson gave a gift much bigger than a football win to one family this week.
After the Raiders got a special visit from Ava Urrea, a 4-year-old fan who was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, Watson donated his entire game check — about $18,000 according to ProFootballTalk.
Urrea and her family were introduced to the Raiders through Jay Glazer’s Touchdown Dreams Foundation. The brave 4-year-old also received signed footballs, helmets and more from the visit. And the Raiders might have received some good luck: They beat the Bills, 26-24.
