WATCH: Heartwarming video of Jalen Hurts visiting autistic Alabama fan

Justin Mixon is a 2011 graduate from Alabama. Naturally, he is a big fan of the school’s football team. One of his favorite players is quarterback Jalen Hurts.

Mixon is also autistic.

Per Matt Zenitz of AL.com, he “began attending Arts ‘n Autism when he was in kindergarten and now teaches the center’s music program.”

Hurts’ friend Rachel Bell also volunteers at Arts ‘n Autism. Through her, Hurts found out about Mixon. The quarterback wanted to meet his fan and arranged a surprise meeting, which he posted on Twitter.
