Matt Ryan expresses relief about health of wife, newborn twins

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan expressed relief about the health of his wife, Sarah, and their newborn twins following complications related to the pregnancy.

"Like Womens Davonte Lambert Jersey any parent, obviously you want everything to go well,'' he told ESPN on Monday at a celebrity golf event for charity. "We're not alone in having gone through this. I know other families, parents, children go through things like this all the time. You just want things to shake out well, and we're fortunate that they did. Obviously your mind really never leaves there because that's the most important thing in your life -- your family.''
Ryan missed the Jan. 9 practice leading into his team's divisional playoff matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles to be by his wife's side. Despite the circumstances, Ryan said he was able to focus upon returning to the team. The Falcons lost that weekend's game against the eventual Super Bowl champions by a score of 15-10.
"It was one of those things, my mind was there,'' Ryan said of not letting the situation weigh him down. "Even in the week we were playing in the playoffs, it was there. I felt like I was really well prepared http://www.officialjaguarsfootballshop.com/YOUTH+LERENTEE+MCCRAY+JERSEY for that game and played well.
"Yeah, it's tough [missing practice]. At the same time, perspective is key. In the grand scheme of things, there's more important things in life. I think we'd all agree that health and family are No. 1.''

When asked about the tense moments related to the health of the babies, Ryan admitted he was nervous without revealing details of what doctors told him could have happened.
"I mean, everybody is [nervous], I think, in those situations,'' he said. "You want everything to go smooth, and sometimes it doesn't. But it was OK.''
Asked if he's relieved now, Ryan responded, "I imagine you never feel like that as a parent. You're always worried about something. Obviously things have went really well for us. I'm just happy that they're home and healthy. And my wife is doing great, too.''

"I think things are good,'' Ryan said of the contract talks. "Obviously, I've been through this before. I've always had the mindset that you kind of let your agents handle the business and let our front office take care of it. I Womens Kamalei Correa Jersey think we have great people on both sides.
