NFL Player Surprises Toms River Boy

Here's a heartwarming story to start off your week!

Patch.com reports, that on Friday night, Joey Cirillo from Toms River lost his favorite football autographed by Jonathan Casillas. The ball disappeared after he brought it to a Toms River North game. Joey was crushed - as any child would be, so his Mom, Erica, sprung into action by making a Facebook post about the lost football.

That post caught the eye of two people who know Jonathan Casillas, and they contacted the football player. Casillas went above and beyond to surprise Joey by delivering a new football to him at home, autographing it, and adding "DO NOT TAKE OUTSIDE!" I think that is wise advice!
