Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette came to the rescue of an LSU college student this week.

After reading on Twitter that Jhane Lowsoo, a fifth-year student at the school, had lost her financial aid, Fournette tweeted that he would help pay for her final year at his alma mater.

Lowsoo had started a GoFundMe campaign and explained her situation — she set a $5,000 goal to help pay for her $10,000 tuition, and said she would pay the other $5,000 by working her two jobs. Fournette, a former Heisman finalist when he played for the Tigers, casually tweeted to Lowsoo, "I'll pay the rest for you."

Before Fournette's kind gesture, Lowsoo had raised $2,000 of her $5,000 goal. She has since raised $3,000 from small donations, even without Fournette's financial assistance. Lowsoo had not yet responded to a message from USA TODAY Sports on Thursday morning.
