Bengals TE Tyler Eifert Seeks Autographs from Members of US Army at Pro Bowl

On his first trip to the Pro Bowl, Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert made sure to make the most of his special opportunity.

The 25-year-old has undoubtedly spent his fair share of time signing autographs for fans, but during his time in Hawaii, he was the one seeking signatures—from the true American heroes.

Eifert showed his respect for members of the U.S. Army by asking them to sign a Pro Bowl helmet. And yes, he was sure to say, "Thank you."

It's great to see a professional athlete turn the tables like this. Fans worship athletes and consider them to be heroes when they do something good on the field or court. However, athletes are just athletes. It's the servicemen and women who are the true heroes.
