Colston Loveland goes viral after catching every pass from hospital kids in emotional charity event
Something heartwarming happened recently that is now winning the internet. During a charity event held in Chicago, rookie tight end Colston Loveland from the Chicago Bears made sure not to drop a single football but it wasn't on the field.

Colston Loveland catches every pass from hospital kids to raise thousands for charity
On Tuesday, July 16, 2025, Colston Loveland, who was recently drafted by the Chicago Bears, visited a children's hospital in Chicago. There, he took part in a charity challenge that involved catching footballs thrown by young patients. The rule was simple: for every pass he caught, a donation of $250 would be made to a local children's charity.
The kids, full of excitement, took turns throwing passes to the 21-year-old tight end. And Loveland, staying true to his role, caught every single one. He did not let a single ball hit the ground. In total, Loveland caught enough passes to raise almost $10,000, all of it going to help children battling serious health conditions.
The event was organized by the Bears in partnership with the hospital and a local sponsor. The goal was not only to raise money but to bring joy and hope to the children.
Videos from the day showed kids smiling, laughing, and cheering each other on as Loveland played with them. One clip, shared by @mlfootball on X (formerly Twitter), quickly went viral and was viewed over a million times.
