Eagles quarterback and Hawai’i native Marcus Mariota delivered a heartfelt message to his home state Saturday when asked about the devastating wildfires in Maui.
“My heart goes out to them and everybody back home,” Mariota told reporters. “Hawai’i’s such a small place, such a small community that everyone has family or friends that have been affected by it. All I can say is that we’re thinking about them, we’re praying for them.
“Please, if you have an opportunity to help donate or help support—it’s bad,” he continued. “[I] just appreciate the love and support and [I] always think about them whenever I’m away.”
