Fred Warner and Wife Expecting Baby Girl Amid Injury Recovery

San Francisco, CA — Fred Warner, linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers, and his wife Sydney announced they are expecting a baby girl due in early 2026. The joyful news comes shortly after Warner’s season-ending ankle injury during a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Sunday.

Warner’s injury has created a challenging year for the athlete, but the happy announcement of new life has brought a much-needed boost to spirits within the 49ers community. Days after the incident, he took to social media to express gratitude for the support from fans, stating it is a motivation for his recovery.

In a delightful reveal on Instagram, Sydney shared a video of the couple biting into cupcakes, which revealed a pink filling, confirming they are having a girl. “Life knew we were gonna need a little extra sunshine this year,” Sydney wrote, adding that she hopes their one-year-old son Beau will soon be excited about becoming a big brother.

The couple welcomed Beau during the 2024 offseason, and Sydney’s touching announcement was filled with hope and warmth, presenting the family’s upcoming adventure in a heartwarming light.
