Russell Wilson and his family keep surprising fans with charming updates during this offseason. The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, his wife Ciara, and their children are exploring interests in other sports, including basketball and baseball. Wilson’s baseball interest is well known, as he was a highly regarded MLB Draft prospect and was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in 2007. Recently, their son Future Zahir Wilson’s baseball skills have also gained popularity, often highlighted by the Wilson couple.

Speculation about Wilson’s stepson following in his footsteps in the MLB world arose from a recent update on Wilson’s Instagram. The NFL star attended a match between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Los Angeles Dodgers with his children, where the Pirates delighted Wilsons by defeating the Dodgers 10-6 on Wednesday night.

Celebrating his team’s win, Russell captured the special moment with his eldest child, 10-year-old Future, and his 6-month-old daughter, Amora Princess. In a recent Instagram story, the trio looked adorable. Russell and Future appeared extremely happy, with vivacious smiles displaying their enthusiasm for the MLB team, while little Amora looked amazed, giving shocked expressions while posing for the snap.
