Alabama football is not just winning on the field, it is winning off of it.

The team is paying its respects to John Jones, a 12-year old boy who died tragically of a gunshot wound.

Alabama is sending a signed jersey and football by star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to his final resting place.

From Phenix City, Ala., Jones was shot in the head while playing with another juvenile on Friday, Oct. 4 and died a few days later at an Atlanta hospital.

A nice gesture by the Crimson Tide, who have a big game against Texas A&M this weekend while proving there is more to life than football.
