With the National Football League season just around the corner, Tampa Bay Buccaneers star Shaquil Barrett just reminded us all that there are many more important things than football.
The league star recently paid tribute to his late baby daughter with an epic gesture.
Barrett got her face tattooed on his forearm, according to a report by TMZ Sports.

Notably, it’s been just three months since the 2-year-old tragically drowned to death.
Needless to say, plenty of people took to social media to shower him with support and keep him in their prayers.
The tattoo features his late daughter, Arrayah, at her second birthday party alongside a ray of light, several stars, and clouds.
Her figure was immortalized by renowned artist Tattoo Red, who’s tattooed countless athletes for the past 14 years, according to the report by TMZ Sports.
Arrayah was one of four kids Barrett has with his partner, Jordanna, and they recently announced they’re expecting another baby.
No father should have to go through something like this, and it’ll be an event that will leave Barrett scarred for life, that’s for sure.
At least, the star linebacker will now get to watch her face forever after having her immortalized, and he’ll have a reminder of what’s actually important in life, even ahead of football.
The Buccaneers will most likely make him and his family another tribute once the season kicks in, and they’ll have plenty of extra motivation to get the job done every single time they’re on the field.
