It's a Boy for Eagles Player Matt Schobel

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Matt Schobel is a new dad after wife Nicole gave birth to their son on Monday, August 25th. Matthew John Schobel weighed in at 6 lbs, 9 oz.

If little Matthew decides that he wants to play professional football when he is older, he will follow in the family footsteps! Dad Matt, 29, began his professional football career with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2002 and signed a five-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2006. His brother Aaron Schobel plays for the Buffalo Bills, and cousin Bo Schobel plays for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
