After scoring a touchdown, Hill saw John’s family wave at him and noticed the sign -- That’s when Hill handed over the TD football.

"I want to put it in the basement, frame it like my dad,” John said. “He has [a] Lakers one, basketball."

Hill’s TD helped the Chiefs score a 35-9 victory over the New York Jets.
