Seattle Seahawks Running Back Christine Michael to Take Autistic Teenager to Her Prom [VIDEO]

This story will probably not get the traction like the high school football player that asked a Texans cheerleader to prom, but it is certainly one of the most heartwarming of the off-season. Former Texas A&M running back (and current back-up to Marshawn Lynch in Seattle) is going to be taking an autistic teenager from Anahuac High School, Taylor Kirkwood, to her prom.

Michael may not be getting it done in the NFL yet (can't suck to have a Super Bowl ring already though), but he sure knows how to make the most of his celebrity.

As a parent of two autistic kiddoes I can understand how much something like this means to young Taylor.

Well done Christine. Well done indeed.
