Torrey Smith is a two-time Super Bowl champion and a three-time dad. His entire social media feed is mostly about his kids and his role as their father. A lot of football stars share images of their time on the field, but not Smith! In fact, he prefers his platform to be more about family than football.

Smith shared something very deep and personal with his fanbase after his second son, Kameron, was born. Kameron had a high chance of being born with Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) which can cause developmental delays and even infant death. Thankfully, while in utero, his test results came back clear and that they would be saved from the premature loss of their boy. "We are excited to know that our child has a shot at life and nothing else matters."
