Aaron Jones doesn’t know what the big deal is. The Packers running back insists he was “just doing what anybody else would do” in helping a stranger in a wheelchair at Appleton International Airport.

@MonicaAllen11 tweeted a photo of Jones with the woman Deacon Jones Jersey , writing, “Just watched Packers Aaron Jones push a random lady through the Appleton airport because there was no [one] there to push her.” The tweet has more than 18,000 likes and 3,000 retweets.

Jones met with the media Thursday for the first time since his random act of kindness.

“A lady was sitting next to me, across the row when we were getting off the plane, [and] I saw she needed help with her bags,” Jones said Tremaine Edmunds Jersey , via Stu Courtney of USA Today Wisconsin. “She had a cane; she was dragging her bags; and I was like, 鈥楧o you need help?鈥?And she said yes, so I started carrying her bags and when we were walking off the plane, the flight attendant told her that there would be somebody there to push her with a wheelchair. There were wheelchairs when we walked, but nobody was there, and the wheelchairs were folded up. So I asked if she wanted me to push her, and she said yes. I pushed her down to where her daughter was.”

Jones doesn’t know the woman’s name Ramon Humber Jersey , and she didn’t know he was a Packers player when he offered to help.

”As we got halfway down there, I had a bag tag on and she asked 鈥楢re you a Packers player?’ and I said 鈥榊es, ma鈥檃m I am,'” Jones said. “And she was like, ‘My husband would鈥檝e loved this.’ You could tell she got excited, and it made me happy. But I didn鈥檛 know anybody had taken a picture until I got home and got on Twitter.”

The Seattle Seahawks released quarterback Trevone Boykin on Tuesday shortly after his girlfriend alleged in a television interview that he physically assaulted her in Texas last week.

The practice squad player was released from the team after WFAA-TV in Dallas posted an interview with Boykin’s girlfriend detailing an assault she alleges happened on March 20 in Mansfield, just southwest of Dallas. The woman said she refused to show Boykin a text message and an argument ensued Tyler Boyd Jersey , and that he broke her jaw and tried to strangle her.

Boykin, 24, denied the allegations in a statement released Tuesday to NFL Media. He called the allegations false and said he wasn’t involved in a physical fight.

”This woman has lied about me and it has cost me my job,” he wrote. ”I understand the Seahawks decision to release me. The story that was reported casts a bad light on the organization and on me.”

Boykin’s agent, Drew Pittman, also told WFAA that the allegations were false. A call to the agent’s cellphone by The Associated Press went unanswered Tuesday.

Mansfield police spokesman Sgt. Michael Midkiff said the department is investigating the alleged assault. He said no charges had been filed as of Tuesday and that the investigation was in a very early stage.

The assault allegation is the latest off-field issue for Boykin, who has spent his NFL career with Seattle.

He was arrested in Dallas last year when a vehicle he was a passenger in hit several people on a sidewalk. He fled the scene on foot but was later arrested on misdemeanor charges of public intoxication and possession of marijuana.

In 2015 Jamie Meder Jersey , Boykin was arrested for assaulting a police officer and public intoxication shortly before the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio during his senior season at TCU. Boykin, who was the team’s quarterback, was suspended for the bowl game.
