Goodwin went through a lot during his time in San Francisco. While we’re aware, it’s impossible to understand what Goodwin went through unless you’ve experienced the same type of tragedy and trauma. It is easy to empathize with him and his family, and that’s why I’ll be tuning in. Goodwin and his wife Morgan will speak about their experiences and what they’ve gone through over the past few seasons.
From the video above, Marquise says, “I always wanted a kid, and I wanted so bad, and it was just taken. That’s going to be the best day of my life, and I can’t wait for it.”
Morgan: My worst fear just happened all over again. I know me, and Marquise can get through anything. There’s a rainbow at the other end.
What appears to be Goodwin’s mother or mother in law: Devastation times ten. He wanted to be a father more than any Super Bowl Championship.
