Buffalo Bills fans are paying it forward to a charity with ties to the Baltimore Ravens tight end who dropped a crucial, game-tying pass in the final moments of Sunday's NFL divisional playoff game that ultimately brought his team's season to an end.In the wake of the heartbreaking 25-27 Baltimore loss, Bills fan Nicholas Howard set up a GoFundMe page to raise money for Breakthrough T1D, a global type 1 diabetes research and advocacy non-profit supported by Ravens tight end Mark Andrews, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as a child.RELATED STORY | NFL owners pledge millions to help clean up cities after devastation from Helene"As many of you know Ravens TE wasn't able to catch the the game tying 2 point conversion and upset Ravens fans," the fundraiser's summary reads. "On top of that the TE has been receiving death threats and nasty comments [after] his performance last night. We want Bills Mafia to donate to Marks charity for Juvenile diabetes."As of Wednesday, the GoFundMe had already received nearly 3,000 donations totaling more than $80,000, far surpassing the fundraisers original goal of at least $5,000. That goal has since been increased to $90,000 but will likely increase even more as donations continue to pour in. Some of the top donations include $200 from "Bills Mafia."FROM THE ARCHIVES | Fans flood Buffalo charity with donations in support of Bills kicker"Shout out to Bills Mafia for showing support to our guy Mark Andrews and donating to the @BreakthroughT1Dorganization, which works towards curing and improving the lives of those dealing with Type 1 diabetes," the Baltimore Ravens said in a social media post.
