Rams fans watched rapt as Andrew Whitworth gave his all on the field and helped clinch the win for Los Angeles at SoFi Stadium Sunday.
At least most fans were glued to the action.
But a photo from the stands revealed that one ticket holder, who wore his No. 77, wasn’t even looking at the game — his youngest daughter, Katherine.
The NFL’s Man of the Year for 2022 paid a visit to TODAY Monday morning and reacted to the now-viral photo that shows the rest of his family taking in the game, while the 7-year-old's full attention is on the book in her lap.
“Oh, it’s special,” Whitworth told co-anchors Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb. “She’s the fourth one and, you know, the hardest one. That’s her.”
The 40-year-old tackle beamed while speaking about Katherine, because while the casual observer might simply see an amusing and relatable photo of a disinterested kid, he sees something else in it.
“She's so cool," the proud dad explained. "She’s just her in every moment, and that’s what makes her special. You know what? It’s that fourth one that’s just the strongest, the toughest and who-she-is the most, out of all of them."
He added, "That’s why we love her so much."
