Last week, Jon decided to travel to Middle Tennessee with the team despite his father's worsening condition due to a stroke. All Jon did was score three touchdowns and recover a fumble that sealed the 24-17 win, earning him the game ball to take home to his dad.

Sadly, Jon's father passed yesterday from the stroke. My thoughts are with him.

Thoughts are with him and his family.
