Former Alabama wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been a member of the Miami Dolphins for roughly two months now, but he is already helping out within the community alongside his new teammates.
Early Thursday morning, tragedy struck Surfside, Florida, a community near Miami Beach, when a residential 12-story building collapsed. The horrific event has led to many being injured, various deaths and over 150 people missing.
First responders have been on the scene non-stop since it occurred. Monetary donations, food and water have been plentiful in the area.
Today, Waddle showed up to the scene with Dolphins linebacker Jerome Baker to help deliver water and drinks to the family reunification center, where impacted individuals and families have sought refuge been brought back together with loved ones.
