PHOTO: Golden Tate helps Navy veteran propose to his girlfriend
Before taking on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate played a part in a different kind of memorable moment at Ford Field.
Through the Golden Future Foundation, Tate helped a veteran of the US Navy named Eric propose to his girlfriend Darien.

Tate's foundation set up Eric, Darien and their entire family with a suite to watch the game. The suite was decorated with photos of Eric's father, who recently lost his battle with cancer.
After a picture-perfect proposal, the newly engaged couple watched Tate catch four passes for 59 yards in Detroit's 32-17 defeat of the 49ers.
