The NFL teams and players prepared some of the most interesting and touching surprises to moms on the Mother’s Day and in the sea of attractive messages and wishes, we picked out several that caught our eye. Among these touching stories, one is quite different and talks about a great fight for life and a huge win over vicious disease.
The Bills with a big surprise
Buffalo Bills decided to mark this special date with a dinner invitation to six mothers of deployed military members. Not only that, but these six moms also got a big surprise from the Bills players who served dinner to them in person.

Watt’s nice touch
Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker TJ Watt visited UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital and gave new moms a special surprise and it’s needless to say they were shocked but in a good way. I bet moms in other hospitals can only be jealous after seeing this video.

JJ’s chocolate chip pancakes
TJ’s brother, JJ Watt, one of the best NFL defenders in the current decade, decided to surprise his mother with chocolate chip pancakes but they didn’t come up as he expected. Nevertheless, his mom was surely happy with the gesture as she knows that her son is better in football than in the kitchen.
Things were on track with the chocolate chip pancake “Mom” until the second “M” when it all started to fall apart. But you get the idea.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the incredible moms out there! I am so thankful and grateful to be able to call this one my mom. I love you! pic.twitter.com/45gV7KPBKA

Galynn Brady is a fighter!
Tom Brady’s mother, Galynn, was diagnosed with aggressive cancer in 2016 but with the help of the family and strong will, she managed to beat the vicious disease. It’s no wonder why Galynn’s son is such a great fighter when he has a mom like this. Here you can see her emotional story.

Another emotional story
Cleveland Browns rookie cornerback Greedy Williams experienced a similar life story to Tom Brady’s as his mom was also battling cancer and won and he celebrated the Mother’s Day by reading a heartfelt letter from her.
