Incredible video: Former @KCentral_Sports WR Phillip Blanks dives to catch a 3-year old boy dropped from a burning, 3rd floor Phoenix apartment. I just spoke to the former @USMC Marine who says he was "put on this earth to protect people".

good thing he was a receiver and not a DB or LB... otherwise that baby probably would've been dropped

Not a bad stat line for 1 day:
3 catches for 9 stories, 0 drops. Good thing he didn't score a TD, he may instinctively spiked the kid.

Thank God this mother fricker wasn't there.

Thats a fricking bold move to run in there for the INT.
A guy was standing there waiting.

That guy was not going to catch that kid. He was totally Jimmy Grahaming it

Good lord! They couldn’t have at least dropped the kid feet first and give him a fighting chance of surviving in case he wasn’t caught (which he wouldn’t have been). The guy waiting was not in position and was slow to react. That kid is probably dead without Phillip Blanks.

He bobbled it a bit, ground definitely helped secure the catch. Incomplete

Don't disagree, just saying bold move.

According to a Phoenix news report, the boy and his 8-year-old sister were critically injured in the fire.
The mother of the two children did not survive the fire.
Blanks said he made it his mission to "track those two children and their father down, and to help them as much as I can."
Story here.
