Teammates applaud Devonta Freeman's act of kindness with elderly woman

Devonta Freeman humble nature doesn't go unnoticed.

The Atlanta Falcons Pro Bowl running back was singled out by an Atlanta-area neighbor for a recent random act of kindness. As documented in the Tallahassee Democrat, the former Florida State standout was jogging in the neighborhood when he stopped to help 82-year-old Elenor Szendel unload her lawnmower. Freeman then posed for a picture with Szendel and her daughter-in-law.

The selfless act is what teammates have grown accustomed to seeing from Freeman, who seems to appreciate life a little more after growing up in the rugged Miami projects.
