Elliott won the game with a touchdown reception. He celebrated by dunking the ball through the field goal.

"That's the way it's suppose to be just guys coming together," Gurley told reporters before the game. "We ain't doing much anyway. So why not do this for a good cause...it's just a good event to be at."

Quavious 'Quavo' Marshal, 26, is Gwinnett County's all-time leader in completions from his time as Berkmar's quarterback.

The event raised money for the school's football team.

"I went to school out here in Gwinnett, on the north side," Kamara told reporters, according to NFL Network. "It's just fun to come out here and be able to give back to Quavo, that's like my brother. Anything he's doing, I'm 100 percent supportive."
