It’s an insane world of NFL and we are just living in it. Just kidding! However, things do sometimes go down in the most unexpected ways. And boy, does this story deliver! Nick Allegretti, the Washington Commander guard, stepped onto a wild ride with his family. And it happened just as the Super Bowl rolled around.
Does Nick Allegretti have twins?
You bet he does! On February 12, 2023, Allegretti and his wife Christina celebrated the arrival of twin daughters, and the timing couldn’t have been better—or weirder. The couple had dropped hints about their growing family back in November, posting pics of tiny shoes just waiting for little feet. Fast forward to Super Bowl Sunday, and Christina was delivering the twins in Chicago while Nick (a Chiefs’ player at the time) was chilling miles away in Arizona, gearing up for the big game. Crazy, right?

Now, hold on to your hats because Nick wasn’t about to let distance ruin this memorable moment. He hopped on FaceTime to witness the birth, right from the Chiefs’ hotel lobby while his teammates were snoozing. The guard’s face lit up as he became a dad, saying it was “the best day of my life.” The man was pumped! And guess what? Nick’s parents were also there via FaceTime, all smiles and tears as they welcomed their granddaughters into the world. Like a family reunion—only much more dramatic and a lot less BBQ!
But wait, there’s more! Imagine your folks joking about needing rings for your new twin daughters. That’s exactly what happened, as Nick’s parents teased him about needing extra Super Bowl hardware to match that double bundle of joy.
Were the guard’s kids born during Super Bowl LVIII?

Absolutely! Those twins made their grand debut just hours before the Chiefs faced off against the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII. As the game clock ticked down, Allegretti was busy becoming a dad rather than stressing over game plans. It’s like life hit the fast-forward button in the best way possible.
And Nick wasn’t alone in this whole “new dad during the Super Bowl” chaos. His teammate, Mecole Hardman, was also riding the baby train as his girlfriend gave birth to a baby boy right after the game. These guys really knew how to multitask! Hardman even tweeted about the drama while gearing up for the game, letting fans know about his girlfriend going into labor. It was practically a baby boom for the Chiefs that weekend!

Then, just to keep things fun, Eagles’ Jason Kelce and his wife were also on baby watch. Kylie Kelce had her doctors on standby at the Super Bowl, just in case she went into labor during the big game. They were prepared for anything, and it kind of felt like the Super Bowl turned into an unofficial family gathering, with all these babies coming into the world.
