On Sunday night in Austin, Texas, Minnesota Vikings' wide receiver KJ Osborn helped rescue a man from a burning car.

The vehicle had caught flames after a bad crash.

"Most of the time, the saying goes, 'wrong place wrong time'," Osborn said on Twitter. "But this time I believe God had me, us, at the right place at the right exact time."

Osborn said three other "heroes" helped rescue the man from the burning vehicle.

Osborn said he was in the back of an Uber on his way home when the driver realized that the man had crashed his car. Osborn, the driver, and two others immediately sprung to action to help pull the man from his vehicle.

Osborn told ESPN's Adam Schefter that he plans on visiting the man in the hospital soon.

"I'll leave you with this," Osborn said on Twitter. "God is real and his LOVE is real. He will send his angels to be camped around you and provide you with his grace and mercy."
