I'm not crying I'm just sweating from my eyes
Lol
SCP- 049 has breached contanment
i teared up watching this vid and this comment raised up my mood!
Same
SCP- 049 😂
Wow I respect Jameis a lot for what he did before the game.
What a horrible thing that happened to that family.
WWCD Gaming Jameis and Kwon actually go way back, they were literally the #1 and #2 HS recruits in the state of Alabama when they came out the same year and had even played together in all-star games and the like. That said, I strongly belive that Jameis would've acted similarly had it been anyone else on the team who he might not have had a prior history with. But ye you could tell Jameis really felt for what his boyhood friend was going through, mos def a genuine dude.
Yeah, A lot of respect gained by jamies from this game. Love your channel by the way dom!!
Hey Dom I know this is a horrible tragedy but hey man huge fan
Welcome to the 49ers family Kwon. Proud to have you!
Big facts..he's playing for something bigger than a
Football..i can't wait to see him ball out..the universal god got his back
No!! Bittersweet, I'm gonna love watching him go after Wilson though.
Good Luck Kwon your going to make a difference on the 49ers! I am an Eagles Fan But Good Luck😃
Overpaid
U guys were blessed with a very talented humble player. I wish him the absolute best in the 49ers organization
this is especially sad for anyone with a brother
Noah Puffenbarger i lost 1 of my 2 brothers 7 hours after he was born
Tim Scott sorry for your loss 🙏🏻
can't even imagine losing my brother. feel for you man, sorry for your loss
Bill Chill 35 thanks
Noah Puffenbarger true I liked your comment
Whoever disliked has no respect.
No heart, it's pathetic 😒
angurw123 I'm a Browns fan and now I'm buying his jersey
Jacoby Johnson I have much respect for all browns fans
angurw123 IKR
angurw123 its because they are black... But I agree.. No respect.. This is all sad
I'm a falcons fan but tbh this is probably the only time I'm okay with losing
Zach Niles 28-3
@@v.k.1925 you didn't have to do him like that..... out of the 1st round 3 years straight
I’m from Atlanta too
Go cowboys
Zach Niles same
Not gonna lie, that Winston speech in the huddle and the locker room huddle made me tear up. Welcome to the Bay Kwon 🔥🔥🔥
He is back with Winston now
I never knew your story Kwon. Welcome to San Francisco! Congratulations on signing with us
This is the game that Kyle talked about in the presser when Kwon balled out and Julio Jones asked Kyle if he could play FB to block him
Niners for life
BayTongan y’all took him from us😪
Nba NewsTime who’s cutting onions?
BayTongan go niners!
What a beautiful story this made me cry a lil 😪
fr me too
When he ripped it from Julio’s hands it made me tear up a bit because Julio is such a strong guy and it must’ve taken everything Kwon had to get that ball
Yeah, hands down one of the best videos I've seen from NFL Films (and I've seen a ton of them.) Pretty awesome of him to go out and play a game like that after the tragedy that he endured, and not sleeping for 48 hours before the game. It's reminiscent of how Brett Favre played an amazing game after losing his Dad. Yes, I understand the positions they play are nothing alike, but the way they were able to play at the top of their game in the midst of experiencing tragedy has many parallels. Takes a special amount of mental fortitude to be able to overcome all of that, and perform at the top of your game.
On a side note, I didn't know much about Jameis Winston before this, other than he was the Buccaneers QB. After watching this, I gained an exponential amount of respect for him. He seems like a man of impeccable character, you can tell how much he cares about his teammates.
He was the #1 pick last year, hes been an excellent player and character
cyrax99 I think these things motivates us. Like "Man, I'll play this game for him" You know what I'm saying? Great story!
cyrax99 I cried it's unbelievable how you have you someone that's really close to you then all the sudden they just disappear into thin air that's why I cried cause ya just so sad that's like my guy friend we're really close good friends if he disappeared into thin air I would cry the rest of week cry myself to sleep cause I know he's really supportive and really cares about me and if anything happened I know I would cry myself to sleep the rest of the month because like I said having someone so close go away into thin air right before your eyes
What's crazy about this game is Jameis was a rookie when this video was taken, this is in week 6 and he looks like he has been leading this team for a decade, not the short end of 2 months.
cyrax99 you have to much time
such an incredibly sad story, but so equally inspring. Jameis Winston is an incredible leader of men, expecially for such a young dude. Gonna be impressive watching this bucs team grow, from a Raiders fan
I am also a raiders fan. This video made me cry. Hats off to Jameis Winston for helping Kwon when he was down. Also hats of to Kwon who had a great game.
couldn't agree more, i'm an eagles fan but went to FSU and got to see Jameis play, great players win you games, but great leaders win you championships. Bucs will always be my 2nd favorite team as long as Winstons under center.
Agreed (also a raiders fan) I have gained a ton of respect for Him and for Kwan
Cau7ioN on Twitch same here man
They got tom Brady as starting quarterback 3 years later lol
Respect ✊ from Cowboys fan!
cai vue 10-1 baby fuck yeah!!!
MadLil sleepy get outta here with that. we not talking bout records or whatever we talking about respect
I'm a Redskins fan
cai vue respect from Seattle fan
Respect that 100... R.I.P Broad
Mario Warthaw it's brod not broad
So much respect for Kwon. When my mom died I did nothing for a week, and he's playing football eight hours later
Be strong
I know that how you feel, but I can tell you she wouldn’t want you to mourn for her. She wants you to go to college and stay out of trouble. Stay strong brother
What is this liquid substance coming out my eye?
Bleach Videos milk
Bloke Jr H20
Lol you stupid
@@romanmolina7555 LOOL
Jamal Ford wel Actually u are
God the damn onions.
QuadThreat Gaming you just made me laugh while crying brother
That Brother’s Keeper speech gets me every time. That was the day I knew we got the future of our team on both sides of the ball in the 2015 draft. Been a rough start to 2017 season but sounds like Kwon’s hamstring is finally and he’ll be ready to go again.
Passionate comment from a passionate fan which is obviously respectable but, this didn’t age well...😅
@@burtmacklin1939 Yeah, at least Phil got to have the Brady experience.
Welcome Home KWON 🙏🏼😪 The Empire loves you already
Respect from a Jets fan. Such a great performance. R.I.P. Broderick Taylor. You'll be missed..
Respect from N.Y Giants Fan😥
Hey if your still out there hes a jets player now
@@lukebadurski6165 Yeah, man! I've been wanting the Jets to being him in as a FA for a while now and I'm really glad they actually did it. Feels weird not to be disappointed as a Jets fan lmao.
@@-_evilskittles_-4466 hope he plays well and stays around! but ill see you on week 16
"The greatest cure for grief is action"
I'm a fan of this guy after this video.. Deep story!
Carolina fan here. Division rivals or not, this was awe inspiring, I'm not gonna lie, I cried a little bit. Kwon is a beast man.
As a saints fan, I will never disrespect Kwon Alexander. The amount of respect I have for him is off the charts. I may not like the team. But I will always love kwon alexander
I teared up.
Jordan Miller o
HIS STORY CAME ACROSS ON MY FB REEL LINE SO I HAD TO LOOK IT UP SO FOR 2 DAY HE KNEW & STILL DECIDED TO PLAY YES HIS BROTHER WAS PLAYING W/ HIM SO YOUNG WRG PLACE @ THE WRG TIME THESE PUNKS ARE SO QUICK TO PULL A GUN OUT SCARED OF A ASSSS WHOOOOPING I'M PROUD OF THIS YOUNG MAN W/ A AMAZING SYSTEM BEHIND HIM BEAUTIFUL PARENTS "FAMILY" R.I.H.P YOUNG MAN
The video made me cry
Me too
One thing about Jameis is that he knows how to deliver a pre game speech. Hell of a leader and teammate too ‼️
7:21 that was heartbreaking to witness.
how in the world Alexander willed himself through that game...you knew that at that moment he couldn’t hold back the emotions anymore. That is a man who fought through tragedy, I have no idea how...but he did. I would’ve never been able to do that. My heart goes out to him. And my respect.
wow that hit me hard
Welcome, fellow Niner. Glad to have you with us. Much respect bro.
From an Atlanta Fan, glad Kwon had the game he did. Respect
Respect from a texans fan. Ive always liked the buccs idk why lol
Joyner Lucas 💯 #htx
Joyner Lucas htx gang and respect
I'm a Steelers fan but I got respect for him. Congrats on the win vs the Chiefs.
Respect from a saints fan ✊️
Who dat, were gold blooded
Kwon is the G.O.A.T
What a story, I’m in actual tears! Bless up Kwon
Glad to have you the 49ers now
#ninerfan #ninerup
Niners for life
Never heard of this man before this video and all I can say is that is a SHAME! What a great man! The game was AMAZING but that's not what im lookin at. Im seein a dude tryin to make a positive impact stemmed from a negative scenario. That aint no small feat. Mr. Alexander my hats off to ya bud may you kick their ass and come out on top (except vs the browns........could give us that one ya know lol)
Sending Steelers love. My heart broke for him. He’s a warrior!! 🖤💛🖤💛
Sometimes playing off anger and sadness is the way to go. Your emotional yet so focused. Much respect
"Imma play coach, cause ik he would want me to play"
That shii hit the heart 😪 I got a lil brother 2 years younger than me. Couldnt ever imagine this 🙏
great leadership by jamies winston in the pre game huddle and great effort by kwon
He is now a 49ner
He will always be one of my favorite Nfl Player
I'm just here at 3:09am watching emotional sports stories and crying on my couch
Incredible. He’s got the strength of a lion, man.
R.I.P brodrick
Winston is such a class act man. All respect in the world to Mr. Alexander
Gave me chills
“The greatest cure for grief is action”❤️
R.I.P to your Lil Brother!! His looking down on you and his your Angel...!! R.I.P....
Welcome to the Red & Gold!! Welcome to the San Francisco 49ers....
Dammit who poured water on my face?
respect to this man I know how he felt ✝ ✝ ✝
I'm a patriots fan but respect to lil bro
it is truley amazing reading the comments. This story makes the lines of football rivalry invisible as people drop in their respects and support others. I am a Broncos/Giants/Panthers fan and this story has truley touched me, but the comments have brought tears to my eyes. Thank you all for showing me there are still good people in the world.
So much respect for him, I couldn't be mad at that loss. He deserved it for what he went through and this is coming from a true Falcons fan.
Respect for that mans and his family- a giants fan🤜🤛
I always come back to this video and i can’t help but to wonder how in the world people have the audacity to dislike a video like this.
This actually made me cry and I dont cry much...
As a Bucs fan is was sad seeing Kwon leave, Niners got a beast Player with tremendous heart and determination without question and i hope he can stay healthy, i love this dudes attitude and the love for the game. Best wishes for you and your Fam "King Kwon".
It's been a crazy journey watching him play at our HS in Oxford on Friday nights to watching him play in the NFL on Sunday nights.
You're making Oxford,AL & Hobson City proud.
Keep representing for the 256.
If you don't believe in miracles, how're you gonna explain this
Skill?
Motivation
Determination
my Niners got a beast... he’s gonna show us why he’s worth these big bucks, crazy storyline
Only Respect
May you Rest In Peace Lil Brod
Kwon Alexander is my favorite linebacker
One of my favorite players on the team so happy we got this guy man Alexander is a real humble dude. I was at this game too and he is going to be one of the best Linebackers in the league years down the line!!!
I started tearing up at the end of the video, I almost cried. That video is very inspiring and emotional.
This story has really touched me. I have never cried so hard. I am really proud that he was able to push pass his pain to play with purpose!!! I know this is old but it is still touching.
i couldn’t imagine losing my mom dad or my sister or any loved one im blessed for my family🙏❤️sorry this happens to people but ur not alone ur special to them even when their gone😊😇
Respect from a Falcons fan, I remember going to that game and hoping that the Falcons would win. Then I heard that Kwon's brother died and then I changed my mind. RIP Brodrick.
I’m so happy Kwon and Jameis are both on the Saints together! #BrothersForLife
I have so much empathy for him and I can tell he loves his brother so much and the fact that he played a game like that in his situation is just unreal to me🤧 I feel so sorry for him
You can't break the human spirit for those who recognize it this guy is proof much respect from a non NFL fan
Welcome aboard Kwon. You will be a beast with the niners. :D
This is so emotional to watch. It's like a happy, sad, proud feeling that has me crying like a baby. Bless this man and his family.
Such an inspiration. My feed led me to this story, and now I know about Kwon and the memory of his brother. The strength is still rippling, years later ❤️
The 4 people who disliked this have no heart
Much love and respect for Kwon and his family
Alexander, i have no words bro just remember he is at peace...
I’ve never cried so god damn hard in my life. Rip and fly high little bro.
much respect to one of my favorite Bucs players today!!! Hit da Kwon!! R.I.P LIL BROD!!
Literally in tears watching this!!!
Ive literally watched this over 10 times thru out the years n i still cry everytime
You sir, are amazing. Sorry for your families loss. Thank you for your effort in the game. R.I.P. Broad and god bless your family.
Who’s here in 2020 when Kwon is a niner

This almost made me cry bc it’s crazy how ppl can play through that type of stuff
Mad respect to Kwon... RIP young Brod! Nothing but respect and admiration from another Cowboys fan!

All around tough individual, that’s doesn’t break a man makes a man.💯
Welcome to the niners. Nice to hear your story compared to Ruebin Foster. I gladly pay this man 50 million with the passion he plays with.
Jameis is a hell of a teammate Rip broad
I couldn’t imagine losing my brother. Watching this has me choking up. I have the upmost respect for this guy. From a saints fan to you Kwon. Godspeed Brod.
Crazy how inspirational we become when our lives are touched with trials
