time(San Francisco 49ers) were born in 1985, by different mothers but
the same father. And for almost 26 years, they didn’t know about the others
existence.
It started, of all places, on Facebook. Delorise Omon,
Xavier’s mom, was catching up with an old acquaintance on the computer last
winter. The man informed her that Chris Nwagbuo, Xavier’s biological father, had
died in 2004, and that one of his sons, a half-brother of Xavier’s that he’d
never met just happened to play football, too; for the San Diego Chargers. She
told Omon, who then tracked down Nwagbuo and found him in December
2010.
The half brothers exchanged texts and phone calls in the months
since, but had never met face-to-face until yesterday Thursday September 1 on
the field during pregame.
