A South Carolina family and community are mourning the loss of a young man who was killed in a house fire and had dreams of playing football for the NFL.

Jaiden Odom was a 15-year-old Lowcountry football player who played at Baptist Hill High School in Hollywood.

After officials shared that Odom was trapped and had died in the fire, the community followed with an outpouring of support."If I could say anything to him right now, the first thing I would say is that I truly miss you," Kelly Odom, Jaiden's mother, said.
