Wife of Packers' Wynn has baby hours before the Super Bowl

Winning the Super Bowl was only the second biggest event of Jarius Wynn's Sunday.

The wife of the Green Bay Packers defensive end delivered the couple's second child early Sunday in Dallas. Martavia Wynn had been out to eat on Saturday night with Jarius and some other family members when her water broke in the middle of dinner. She was taken to a nearby hospital while Jarius, who was supposed to be back at the team hotel, stayed at her side.

By morning, the Wynn's welcomed 7-pound, 4-ounce Jarius Jr. into the world. 

Wynn only slept 90 minutes on Saturday night but still managed to play special teams for the Packers and made it to the field for three defensive plays.

Though the baby's first name was set long ago, mom and dad said they're still deciding upon a middle name. "Might be Dallas, might be Aaron," he said. Or they could go in another direction. "I'm thinking about Super, but I'm not sure yet."

Jarius Super Wynn Jr., born on Super Bowl Sunday in the Super Bowl city to a father who would go on to win the game. I'd say that has a nice ring to it.
