Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles honored his teammate Eric Berry, currently sidelined with lymphoma, during Sunday’s Pro Bowl.
Charles, who usually wears his number “25” on his helmet, changed that to “29” as a “shout out” to Berry noted by fansided.com.

Berry was sidelined, after the Nov. 20 contest against the Oakland Raiders after having a mass on his chest examined by specialists.
This gesture by Charles is one of many that not only Berry’s teammates, but players around the league have shown support for.
