    New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees gave a Southern California teenager a life-changing surprise Friday (May 11) when he surprised Alex Ruiz with a prosthetic leg.

    The former San Diego Charger was at a Del Mar flag football event when he grabbed the microphone.
    "Surprise," he shouted.

    Brees gave Ruiz a walking prosthetic, then said once Ruiz gets the hang of it he will receive an athletic prosthetic to begin training with.

    Ruiz suffered a severe leg injury while rolling out at quarterback and being tackled during an October 2017 game. The injury led to his foot being amputated.
