February was a big month for Odell Beckham Jr. The Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver won the Super Bowl on the 13th. And he welcomed his first child with his girlfriend, Lauren Wood, on the 17th. They named their baby boy Zydn. The 29-year-old athlete is trying his very best to be a good father. 

That week was crazy for Beckham. He was overwhelmed with positive news. Welcoming Zydn just mere four days after winning the Lombardi Trophy was described by OBJ as the biggest blessing he ever had. Parenting is not an easy job. In the most recent Instagram post, the new father seems to be struggling a bit.

The wide receiver was fresh off surgery when he made the post. Beckham tore his ACL again during the Super Bowl LVI game against the Bengals. He missed out on the second half. OBJ witnessed the rest of the game from the sidelines after being injured. The pain quickly went away after the Rams won the game. OBJ might have missed the entire game if Lauren went into labor. But the timings worked out, and Zydn was born four days after the Super Bowl.
