Robert Griffin III learns wife is in labor live during ESPN's College Football Playoff coverage

[nightwing1240]

The biggest moment of a wild Fiesta Bowl between TCU and Michigan wasn't on the field for Robert Griffin III.

During the third quarter of the College Football Playoff semifinal, Griffin received the news his wife, Estonian heptathlete Greta Griffin, was in labor live on the air while working as part of ESPN's "Field Pass with The Pat McAfee Show" coverage.

The former NFL quarterback's co-hosts were initially confused why he was on the phone, up until he hung up and told them "Sorry guys, uh, I gotta go. My wife's going into labor." Griffin then embraced them and ran off the field.

2. RG III was physically ruined by the Washington football team

They directly contributed to his knee injury by letting him stay in a playoff game several years ago.

I only hope he got out of football without any brain damage.

3. He seems to

Me to be extremely bright. One of the best ex players analyzing games and doing play by play. Sure as hell is no Hershel Walker. This young man has all his brain in tact. I love to hear him break it all down before and during games. Yea, Washington sucks! Under all kinds of investigation for player abuse. Snyder is a trump clone.

7. I Like Him On TV, Too

He shows up on ESPN shows like KJM & NFL Live regularly.
He always seems to made good sense.

4. It wasn't just the "Washington Football Team"

it was specifically coach Mike Shanahan's disregard for his players that ended his career.

5. This!!!

And people paying to watch these elite athletes pummel each other. It really reminds me of gladiators in ancient Rome.

6. He Got There In Time

After the birth, his wife posted on social media that "me & the baby held on."
