Braxton Miller will be sporting a new wristband as he watches his team take the field against Oregon in the national championship game on Monday.
The Ohio State quarterback met up with Corey Borner, a former Texas high school football player who was left paralyzed in 2009 after sustaining a hit during practice.
Miller gave Borner the wristband he was given by NBA star LeBron James, and Borner gave him his own wristband.
