Texans cheerleaders aren’t the only coveted prom dates.

Former Texas A&M and current Seahawks running back Christine Michael will be participating in prom season and for a good reason.

According to a report by KPRC, he will be attending with Anahuac High School student Taylor Kirkwood.

Kirkwood, 18, is autistic and also dealt with scoliosis before an operation repaired the condition.

A family member helped connect Kirkwood and Michael. Kirkwood’s mother, Stacie Holmes, has a cousin who attended West Brook High School in Beaumont with Michael.

“I was just like we’ll see what happens,” Holmes said. “I know he’s busy and I wasn’t sure if he could.”

Anahuac’s prom will be April 12 at the Goose Creek Country Club in Baytown.
