NFL wide receiver Randall Cobb and his wife, Aiyda, posted on Instagram Wednesday that "we are lucky to be alive" after the family escaped a fire at their home in Nashville, Tennessee.

According to Aiyda Cobb's Instagram story, a Tesla charger caught on fire in their garage and spread quickly.

"We are lucky to be alive. ... We got out of the house with nothing but the clothes on our back and no shoes on our feet," Aiyda Cobb wrote.

In the joint statement posted by the Cobbs, they thanked the Nashville Fire Department "for their swift action" and for helping rescue the family dog, Louie.
