Ed Orgeron sent a nice message to 14-year-old Jarrius Robertson.
Jarrius Robertson, who is a massive LSU and Saints fan, is a 14-year-old that is battling a chronic liver disease. He wasn’t able to come out to the Alabama vs. LSU game last Saturday in Baton Rouge, but Tigers head coach Ed Orgeron sent the young fan a heartfelt message in hopes he can make it to the Florida game on Nov. 19:
Couldn't make LSU-BAMA cause I wasn't feeling well

Robertson signed a contract with the Saints on Good Morning America in October and the sports world has fallen in love with him ever since.
He has been seen on the sidelines with the Saints spontaneously throughout the year. He doesn’t only appear at home games, but also recently traveled to Kansas City to be with the team as well as part of his contract as a social media correspondent:
