It’s team bonding at a whole different level.
Bengals kicker Evan McPherson and his teammate, Cincinnati linebacker Logan Wilson, welcomed daughters with their wives on March 15 at the same hospital, according to the NFL, which posted a photo of the players and their spouses, Gracie McPherson and Morgan Wilson, respectively, and the new additions.
“Can finally share the birthday twins,” the caption read.
The Wilsons named their daughter Kambry James Wilson while the McPhersons named their bundle of joy Merritt Hayes McPherson.
“Baby girl and her mom rocked it in the hospital and we are so happy to be home!” McPherson wrote in a separate Instagram post on Monday. “Her brothers are already obsessed with her!! We all love you so much Merritt Hayes!”
Both couples announced they were expecting on social media last September — after getting married on the same day: July 9, 2022.
McPherson and Gracie tied the knot in his native Fort Payne, Ala., where they posed for photos outside the DeKalb Theatre, which featured their wedding date on a massive sign.
Wilson and Morgan married in Berthoud, Colo., in a stunning outdoor ceremony, which took place at TPC Colorado, the state’s only PGA Tour-managed golf course.
A fifth-round pick by the Bengals in the 2021 NFL Draft, McPherson set a league record for the most field goals made in a postseason with 14 in 2022, tying retired kicker Adam Matthew Vinatieri.
Logan — a third-round pick by Cincinnati in the 2020 NFL Draft — led the Bengals in tackles for the third straight year with 135 combined tackles in the 2023 season, his career-best campaign.
The Bengals finished the regular season 9-8 and did not qualify for the NFL playoffs.
