ESPN profiles Steelers' James Conner and how he helps others
Leave to ESPN's Tom Rinaldi to not leave a dry eye in the house on a Sunday morning.
Rinaldi featured a story about the well-chronicled fight that James Conner has had with cancer. But Rinaldi wove in the fact Conner has helped others in the Pittsburgh area who are struggling with problems of their own.
It left many reaching for the tissue boxes.
If you're unsure about rooting for James Conner, you need to watch Tom Rinaldi's story on him and everything he's endured in his young life. #BiggerThanFootball https://t.co/e0ooSVfI7r
