There was a special meaning behind the unique sack dance New York Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul busted out during Sunday's victory over the Denver Broncos.
Last Friday, Pierre-Paul met a 7-year-old boy named Hayden through a visit facilitated by the Garden of Dreams Foundation. Hayden lost his toe due to his battle with cancer.

Hayden showed one of his dances to Pierre-Paul, who promised to celebrate with it if he got a sack against the Broncos.

Pierre-Paul finished the game with three sacks, which tied a career high, and dedicated the performance to Hayden.
"S/O to Hayden for being so strong and making me remember that life ain't always perfect, but happiness always makes things better," Pierre-Paul wrote in an Instagram post.
