Pope Saves Boy!

Great story here about the Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Leonard Pope saving a drowning boy.

Pope was at a pool party with friends when the 6 year old boys mother started screaming. Pope ran out of the house and jumped in the poll--- with his cell phone in his pocket and pulled the boy out of the water.

He, we all know he's a great tight end, but didn't know he could also save peoples lives by jumping in the water.

Yea he was actualy just on NFL Network

They talked to Pope for a little bit about what happened. Then they actually surprised him by having the boy’s mother call in and tell Pope thank you. Don’t think there is a video of it up on NFL Network yet.
