By Michael Luciano
Chicago Bears pass rusher Khalil Mack, a native son of Fort Pierce, Fla., hasn't forgotten where he came from, and is always looking for ways to give back to his old community.
Mack pulled off the ultimate Secret Santa stunt at a Walmart in Fort Pierce, as he payed off all of the active layaway accounts at the store, with the final sum totaling around $80,000.

Mack's latest move comes after he donated 100 pairs of Nike cleats to a local high school over the summer. The Fort Pierce roots in Mack run deep, as he has made it a priority to strengthen that community.
“We here at Walmart would like to thank the Khalil Mack Foundation for your generosity, and for making so many families happy for the holidays,” the Fort Pierce Walmart posted. “Everyone is truly grateful for everything you have done for them!”

Mack might be one of the most ferocious pass-rushers in all of football when he's in between the white lines, but he's one of the most altruistic, caring souls in the league when he's off the field.
