February 13 is a day Van Jefferson will never forget. Not only did he become a Super Bowl champion when the Rams beat the Bengals, 23-20, but his wife gave birth to their son shortly after the game ended.
Jefferson rushed from SoFi Stadium to the hospital after learning that his wife was in labor, cutting his celebration with the team short in order to try to be there for the birth of his son. Unfortunately, he revealed on The Adam Schefter Podcast that traffic prevented him from getting to the hospital in time, but he watched from the car on FaceTime. And after the dust settled from a hectic post-Super Bowl week, Jefferson revealed the name of his son: Champ.
That wasn’t always the planned name, but after the way everything happened on Super Bowl Sunday, it was only appropriate to go with Champ.
