San Francisco was celebrating Sunday afternoon when they clawed back a win against the New York Giants, but it was bittersweet for the player who ran in an impressive touchdown that led to the victory.

Marquise Goodwin is a wide receiver for the 49ers and as a former Olympian, he understands the trials that people must work through to meet their goals. However, this Sunday he was faced with an unimaginable tragedy that would shake anyone to their core.

In the early morning before the game, Goodwin and his wife, Morgan, lost their baby boy due to complications following a premature birth.

Despite the horrendous pain that Goodwin and his family were experiencing, he knew he had to show up to work that day and give his all. And he managed to go above and beyond the call of duty.

The young couple lost their newborn son at 4 am Sunday morning, and Goodwin pulled himself together in order to bring his team their first win of the season with an incredible catch and sprint for the touchdown.

As he made the catch, Goodwin raised his hand to the heavens and dropped to his knees in prayer once he made it clear into the end-zone. Immediately following the game, he left the locker-room and went to console his grieving family.

Share this with your thoughts and prayers for the young couple who are trying to stay strong in this difficult time.
