Olivia Culpo sends emotional message to Christian McCaffrey as he leaves their newborn baby for training camp
Add San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey to that list. The star rusher went off to camp on Monday, leaving wife Olivia Culpo at home with their newborn daughter.
Culpo, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, gave birth to a daughter - Colette Annalise McCaffrey - earlier this month.
McCaffrey's wife gushed over him in an adorable post to her Instagram story - showing the new dad giving some love to their daughter.
'Best daddy in the world goes to camp today. Everyone go wish him luck @christianmccaffrey,' Culpo posted.
She added, 'We're going to miss him so much' with a crying emoji.
The couple announced the arrival of Colette back on July 13 in a joint Instagram post which included a carousel of black-and-white photos of the family in the hospital.
Among those images included one where McCaffrey was seen holding Culpo's hand as she underwent a C-section.
The Rhode Island native and former Miss USA and Miss Universe in 2012 has been open about the difficulties of her pregnancy.
In a TikTok post from March, Culpo revealed that she had 'pneumonia and I was sick also for two weeks... I've truly been on bed rest for four weeks.'
She added, 'Towards the end of two weeks of being really sick, I got a subchorionic hematoma'. A subchorionic hematoma - or a subchorionic hemmorhage - is a condition where there's bleeding between the wall of the uterus and one of the sacs (chorion) which enclose the embryo in the uterus, according to the NIH's National Library of Medicine.
'So at this point, I was so exhausted, like two weeks of just not being able to move and then all of a sudden just purging,' Culpo explained.
'It was a lot. It was heavy… I went to the doctor and it was really exciting to see that there was still a heartbeat.'
Thankfully, Colette was born healthy and the couple have been in the early stages of raising her ever since.
She was born less than a year after the husband and wife tied the knot in the Watch Hill neighborhood of Westerly, Rhode Island. The ceremony took place at a chapel before a lavish reception at the famous and historic Ocean House hotel.

Freddie Freeman remains hot as Dodgers beat Rays
August 3 - Freddie Freeman had three hits and drove in a run as the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-0 in the rubber match of a three-game series on Sunday. Yoshinobu Yamamoto (10-7) allowed five hits with no walks and six strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings. Alex Vesia and Brock Stewart followed before the Rays loaded the bases with two outs in the ninth against Blake Treinen. Ben Casparius replaced Treinen and got Yandy Diaz to ground out for his second save. Junior Caminero and Jake Magnum had two hits apiece for Tampa Bay, which was shut out for the 10th time this season and lost for the fifth time in its last six games. Ohtani had two hits and reached base four times with two stolen bases for Los Angeles, which recorded their fifth shutout and concluded their nine-game road trip with a 5-4 record. The Dodgers were held to three hits over the first five scoreless innings by Joe Boyle, who walked two and struck out two. Mason Englert (0-1) replaced Boyle to begin the sixth inning and allowed a leadoff single to Freeman, who moved to second on Michael Conforto's one-out walk. Andy Pages followed with a single to left field and Freeman beat the throw to the plate, ending the Dodgers' 18-inning scoreless streak. Los Angeles tacked on another run in the seventh inning after Ohtani hit a leadoff single and stole second base. Mookie Betts walked and both runners advanced on a double steal before Freeman singled in a run. Freeman has reached base in 19 straight games and is batting .396 (19-for-48) with two home runs and 12 RBIs in his last 12 games. He drove in four of the Dodgers' eight runs in the weekend series. The Rays threatened in the fifth inning with runners on the corners with one out. Yamamoto escaped the jam when Diaz popped out and Brandon Lowe struck out. Los Angeles added an insurance run in the ninth on Betts' sacrifice fly against Griffin Jax, who was making his Rays debut. Los Angeles second baseman Tommy Edman exited the game in the fifth inning with a right ankle sprain after hitting a one-out single. --Field Level Media

Colts star Salvon Ahmed rushed to the hospital after illegal tackle by teammate in practice
Colts running back Salvon Ahmed had to be carted off the field and taken to the hospital after he was the victim of an illegal hip-drop tackle in practice. Ahmed screamed in pain after the tackle by teammate Trey Washington in the end zone on Sunday. It has been reported that the running back's right ankle was stuck in an 'awkward position'. The 26-year-old was put on a stretcher, while his teammates gathered around him, took a knee, and said a prayer. Ahmed was then taken to the hospital for X-rays amid fears over a serious injury to his lower right leg. Hip-drop tackles were banned last season due to the number of injuries they can cause. Washington, an undrafted free agent, was said to be 'down in the dumps' after hurting his teammate. 'You never want to see that happen,' Colts head coach Shane Steichen said. 'I know we don't encourage hip-drop tackles. 'I know Trey's down in the dumps, and I don't think he's trying to do that. We're just trying to create an edge... those (backups) are going to have to tackle come preseason.' Steichen added: 'I think training camp is where you want to create the edge and the toughness and the identity of your football team, so you have live periods.' Ahmed is a five-year veteran of the NFL who played 38 games for the Miami Dolphins between 2020 and 2023. Following his injury on Sunday, Indianapolis briefly stopped training camp to huddle before finishing its final practice period of the day. 'There's guys out here that need those reps to compete and get better,' linebacker Zaire Franklin, a long-time friend of Ahmed, said per ESPN. 'We're trying to be the best team that we can be so we can win. We've got to keep pushing ourselves.' Steichen added: 'There's a lot of thoughts going on in my head during that situation. I talked to some of the leaders on the team. We wanted to get that last 2-minute situation in. Felt that we needed that. They were on board with that.'
