Russell Wilson expresses concern about starting the NFL season during a pandemic with his pregnant wife Ciara

He is expecting his second child with his wife Ciara.

And NFL pro Russell Wilson is expressing fear of starting the new season during the current coronavirus pandemic.

‘It worries me. My wife is pregnant. The @NFL training camp is about to begin … And there is still no clear plan on player health and family safety, ” the 31-year-old Seattle Seahawks quarterback tweeted Sunday. .

“We want to play soccer but we also want to protect our loved ones,” he said, adding the hashtag, #WeWantToPlay.

Wilson and Ciara, 34, announced in January that they had a brother for their three-year-old daughter Sienna.

The new baby will be the third child for the singer and model, as she also shares a son, six-year-old Future, with her ex, rapper Future.

Wilson is not the only soccer star who has reservations about starting training again as COVID-19 cases increase in the U.S.

Jared Goff, JJ Watt and Patrick Mahomes have recently voiced similar fears on social media.

A week ago, The NFL Players Association revealed that 72 players from across the league have tested positive for COVID-19.

Ciara and Wilson celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary on July 6.

In an interview with British Vogue recently, she explained that she feels she has to be “really cautious” about being pregnant during the pandemic.

She shared how difficult it had been to have an ultrasound in the hospital alone and without her husband.

“Women carry the baby, but for my husband, being in the room and listening to the heartbeat in real time is one of his ways to connect,” she explained. “For him, not being part of that was a symbol of this time we are living.”
