He was asked if he will be in the delivery room with 34-year-old singer Ciara when she goes in to have their second child amid the coronavirus pandemic and he replied:
“That’s what we don’t know. That’s kind of the crazy part of it. I hope so.”

The Seattle Seahawks star then said he thinks the Grammy winner “needs” him in the hospital room and looked back at the birth of their 3-year-old daughter Sienna Princess Wilson.
He recounted:
“Last time, she grabbed my hand. She almost broke my hand.”
“She was squeezing my right hand. I said, ‘Baby, baby, baby, other hand, other hand.
So, she grabbed my left. So, hopefully, she’ll know this time.”
Wilson also spoke about juggling family and football, saying:
“I’m trying to get as much relaxing time because I know I’m going to have to be doing baby duties here soon while trying to play football. So, it’s going to be an interesting balance.”
