Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson is currently being hailed across the NFL world for his actions on Monday night during the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
There, Hendrickson helped up Jaguars star Trevor Lawrence, then became distraught when the star quarterback went back down with what appeared to be a serious injury.
Hendrickson himself removed his helmet, went down to a knee next to him and said a quick prayer.
As it turns out, Lawrence only suffered a high ankle sprain after being stepped on by his own lineman and having his leg rolled up under him.
That good news aside, it seems fans woke up on Tuesday morning, saw the clip and had nothing but praise for Hendrickson.

Trevor Lawrence was hurt last night, and despite being on opposite teams, Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson helped him up, but Trevor would collapse again.
Trey would immediately drop to his knees and begin to pray for Trevor.
God always has a plan🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

If you think Trey Hendrickson praying for Trevor was performative, then you don’t know Trey. He’s the real deal.
