The Patriots might be in the middle of their preseason preparing for the long grind of the regular season, but there are some things indeed far bigger than football.
After New England beat the Panthers (+6.5) at home on Friday night in its second exhibition this month, some players took quality time to enjoy the post-game festivities. One of them was Patriots’ fourth-year linebacker, Mack Wilson.
To really embrace and maximize the moment, Wilson brought his adorable son onto the field with him to take his very first steps at Gillette Stadium. The ensuing photos and clips of father and son will absolutely melt your heart:
