Antonio Cromartie Has Incredibly Fathered His 14th Child Even After He Had A Vasectomy

There are many words that come to mind when NFL fans think of Antonio Cromartie, but at this point one of the first words should be prolific. Cromartie was a standout on defense with the San Diego Chargers and New York Jets. He is also quite famous for having “Extremely Catholic Famers During Harvest” levels of children.

Cromartie and his wife, Terricka, announced they had their sixth child, a girl named Jhett Paxton, last week. This follows a very strange football-themed photo shoot with their children shortly before their newest daughter was born.

Let’s be clear here: the reason a site like US Weekly is even covering the birth of another Cromartie is because he’s starring in a reality show with his wife. The Cromarties will air on USA next month.


But here’s the important graf in this story that features photos of the two with a large snake wrapped around them.

Their new bundle of joy weighed in at 8 pounds, 2 ounces. “This was one of the best pregnancies I’ve had out of all five I’ve had,” Terricka tells Us. “Half the time I didn’t even feel that I was pregnant. I had the most amazing delivery. I felt amazing having my sixth child!” (Antonio, 33, is also the father of eight kids from a previous relationship, despite having a vasectomy years ago.)

Ok, a few things here. So that’s 14 children for Antonio Cromartie, many of which came after he had a vasectomy ‘years ago?’ First of all, that “previous relationship” is supposed to be plural. But is no one checking on his vasectomy? Should they maybe try it again just in case they missed a bit? I’m not sure exactly how this works, but it seems like that operation didn’t exactly do the trick. I’d run it back down there just to make sure.

Anyway here’s, uh, another photo from their photo shoot.

They seem thrilled about their newest family member, and the chance to show that family off on television. Which is great. But I have many, many more questions that I fear a USA television show won’t answer for me.
