Odell Beckham Jr. is making sure the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree — the NFL superstar is already teaching his 3-month-old son how to hold a football … and channeling “Remember the Titans” in the process!!
The Super Bowl champ shared the adorable father-son moment on Monday … placing a toy football on Zydn’s right forearm and armpit to ensure it doesn’t leave his grasp.
“You drop a ball, you run a mile,” the 29-year-old said.
Of course, Beckham is doing his best Herman Boone impression — who can forget Denzel Washington‘s iconic speech in the 2000 flick??
But, Odell knows what it takes to be great — at Isidore Newman School in New Orleans, he played receiver, quarterback, running back and corner … and was also a beast in basketball, soccer and track & field (just like his mom).
OBJ went on to play for the LSU Tigers and was drafted by the NY Giants in 2014 … where he recorded one of the best catches in NFL history. So yeah, the dude knows a thing or two about ball security.
Beckham finally won his first Super Bowl with the LA Rams earlier this year … and his son with Lauren Wood was born a few days later.
In fact, Zydn turns exactly three months today … so happy 3 months to the potential future NFL player!!
