Jordon Geiser, son of Kenny and Angel Geiser, California, got a big surprise Sunday, Aug. 28. The spunky, athletic 10-year-old who has been battling cancer since a mass was discovered in his chest and he was diagnosed with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma July 13, was presented an authentic St. Louis Rams Steven Jackson football jersey (signed by Jackson) by California Schools Athletic Director Bob Staton. Jordon also received a letter of authenticity with his name on it.

"Other than quarterback Sam Bradford, Steven Jackson is the most popular autograph to get from the Rams right now," Staton said.

Just a month ago Staton and Pinto football player Ty Kirchner presented a white football to Jordon, signed by all of the varsity Pinto football players.
