Another Redskin has joined the world of being a father, as offensive tackle Takoby Cofield announced the birth of his newborn son on Tuesday.

Cofield joins teammates Chris Baker, Ricky Jean Francois, Ty Nsekhe, and Quinton Dunbar as new fathers in 2016.

"[My son] has a bunch of little playmakers around here," said Cofield of all the Redskins newborns. "[It] seems like everyone is having children around the same time. If all of them are boys, they can all be in the same little recruiting class together and go off to college together somewhere."

Cofield and his girlfriend welcomed their son, Titus, early Tuesday morning. 

"It took a little while to really set it," said Cofield. "I was holding him and staring at him like 'Wow, this is really my son.' It's crazy. But, he's cool man. He's full of personality already, kicking me and stuff."

Cofield was driving to the hospital from the Inova Sports Performance Center at Redskins Park when the baby was delivered.

The baby was almost a week overdue, and Cofield didn't know when the baby would be born. So after two separate, unsuccessful trips to the hospital, he told his girlfriend he had to "go to work."

"The minute I came [to work], I was right around the corner, sure enough, she called me and was like 'this is it,'" said Cofield. "So I busted a U-turn, called [head coach] Jay [Gruden], said 'This is it, this is happening.' And I walked in, and they were handing [the baby] to her as I walked in. He had just came, I had just missed him by about two minutes."

Now, with a son, Cofield has plenty of extra motivation on the football field.

"I feel like it has [given me extra motivation], even before [he was born]," said Cofield. "Just knowing she has been pregnant the whole time made me push a little bit more. Now, seeing him, and seeing he's here, it's just more sense or urgency, to execute, get everything done and be close to perfect as possible."
