Former Los Angeles Rams star Andrew Whitworth shared a very touching moment with his kids at the Super Bowl.
The legendary NFL lineman recently hung up his cleats for goods and decided to retire at the age of 40. However, he knew for awhile that he was done before he made it clear to the public. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

I’m pretty sure that video could melt hearts made of stone. We often see inspiring and touching moments in the world of sports, and that video is without a doubt among the best.
You can tell Whitworth was so happy to tell his kids he was done playing football, and he did it right after beating the Bengals in the Super Bowl!

Watching him telling his kids he’s going to be a better dad and be around more is about as good as it gets.
How could you not love this moment of Whitworth with his kids? I don’t think it’s possible.

Props to Whitworth on a great career, and I hope he enjoys retirement. He’s certainly earned it.
