Teammates on the Cincinnati Bengals have both welcomed their first children, with their wives giving birth not only on the same day, but in the same hospital!
Kicker Evan McPherson and linebacker Logan Wilson coincidentally got married to their wives on the same day in 2022, on July 9th. The two did not appear to have known each other at the time.
