LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WKBW) — Everybody knows how generous Buffalo Bills fans are, and following Saturday night's 17-3 win over the Baltimore Ravens, fans are proving just how generous Bills Mafia really is.

After Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had to leave Saturday night's game due to concussion protocol, a Bills fan on Reddit shared that he donated $25 to Jackson's favorite charity, the Louisville Chapter of Blessings in a Backpack.

Blessings in a Backpack is a charity that works to feed elementary school children who are in need on weekends.

Back in 2018, Jackson donated $25,000 to the charity which helped start a new program at an elementary school in Louisville, which is where Jackson played in college.

Ravens fans are taking notice of the generosity of Bills fans and thanked them for donating money, with some Baltimore Ravens fans donating money to Oishei Children's Hospital in Buffalo.

Blessings in a Backpack tells us in one day, they organization received over 10,000 donations from Bills fans totaling over $260,000.
