Justin Forsett Gave His Cleats To A 12-Year-Old In Louisiana

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett visited flood victims in southern Louisiana today before the Ravens' preseason finale in New Orleans tonight.

While in Baton Rouge, Forsett met with locals and shared some of the devastation on social media, but he also shared something else on Twitter with a bit more of a "golden" lining.

"Found a kid in the neighborhood who could use a pair of cleats so I gave him mine," wrote Forsett. The running back gave his black and gold cleats to a 12-year-old athlete in the area.
