Matthew Stafford never sought spotlight but now finds himself on biggest stage of all

Matthew Stafford’s twin daughters, Sawyer and Chandler, went to school last Monday eager to share some exciting family news.

Their father was going to the Super Bowl.

"Their teacher said, ‘I know, we’ll all be cheering for him,’" Stafford told Nickelodeon. "And that kind of threw them off; ‘How did you know that?’”

The twins turn 5 next month. At that age, perhaps the world naturally seems small, even one where their father is the quarterback of the Los Angeles Rams and plays on television every Sunday. Maybe it’s all just too much to connect.
