Myles Garrett looks out of central casting to be a super hero, but it seems like once per week there's a story of him acting the part of a great human being. In this case, he just happened to be around when someone was having a bad day and made a really nice gesture.

Some may suggest well the money is nothing to Garrett given his situation, but he's giving something away he doesn't have to. And it's about the gesture and the effort more than anything. In this case, someone is in a tough spot, having an awful day and something small for him is huge for them.

Myles Garrett is old school in so many ways and the NFL has changed in so many ways with how much money is involved. A few decades ago, players would live and immerse themselves in the community where they played because outside of playing a sport, they were largely regular people.

Garrett is a throwback in that sense that he's constantly making himself part of the community. And he may well be a superstar talent, he really does view himself for the most part as a normal guy. He's only entering his third year and there seems to be a list of people who have these types of unforgettable moments with Garrett.

Maybe he is a super hero.
