Vikings defensive back Camryn Bynum’s wish for his wife to watch him play in the NFL came true on Sunday.
Bynum’s wife Lalaine struggled to get a Visa from the Philippines since he was drafted in 2021. After the Vikings’ Monday night win on Oct. 23, Bynum used the most of his television time in his post-game interview to talk about the situation with his wife and ask for any help to bring her to the United States.
After the video went viral, Minnesota senators Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith reached out to Bynum and said they would help him bring Lalaine to watch him play.
On Sunday, ahead of Minnesota’s game vs. the Saints, Lalaine was on the sidelines watching Bynum warm up. The defensive back kept calling the moment a “movie” for how surreal it felt to have his wife at U.S. Bank Stadium.
