Trevone Boykin gets text from special young fan after NFL debut

Re-posting this story from September as a reminder that human beings are layered.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Trevone Boykin made his NFL debut against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, coming a long way from going undrafted this past May out of TCU. It was a special moment for Boykin — throwing his first NFL touchdown to Doug Baldwin early in the fourth quarter — but another one of Boykin’s favorite things to happen that day was a congrats text from a certain fan; a very unlikely fan at that, if you didn’t already know the backstory.
