Van Jefferson’s Super Bowl Sunday will be a day he never forgets. The wide receiver went from winning the Lombardi Trophy on his home turf to rushing to the hospital and meeting his newborn son.
On Monday, Jefferson revealed his son’s name on ESPN’s “The Adam Schefter Podcast.” He and his wife, Samaria, picked the name Champ.
“I think it’s very fitting to name him Champ,” Van said. “We looked it up and Champ is like a warrior and my wife is a warrior like what she did throughout this whole week of Super Bowl, the week of Super Bowl being so crazy.
