Saints player Demario Davis has turned controversy into a positive movement after a fine for a uniform violation on the field. Davis wore a headband that said “Man of God” during a game and was fined $7k for the uniform infraction that was overturned.

Word got out about what happened and the backlash began. One of the groups that jumped in to speak up for Davis just so happened to be school kids in the New Orleans area attending St. Louis King of France School. The kids all made headbands that said “Child of God” and wore them at school. Davis took notice and wanted to visit the kids.

In the end, Davis says it was he who got more out of the day, experiencing the pureness of heart that comes from children.
