Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesWho knew Robert Griffin III was such a Justin Timberlake fan?
Ripping a page from the pop star's playbook, the Washington Redskins quarterback took to Twitter to share the news that he's going to be a first-time dad—and his announcement came on his birthday via a pic of him kissing his pregnant wife's bare baby bump.
Sound familiar?
Timberlake finally confirmed the worst-kept secret in the world two weeks ago when he posted an Instagram pic—also on his birthday—of himself smooching Jessica Biel's bare baby bump.
But back to RG3...
The now 25-year-old NFL star married college sweetheart Rebecca Liddicoat on July 6, 2013. The rather romantic athlete had gone all-out with his proposal, lighting candles and serenading Rebecca with a self-penned love song at Baylor University's indoor practice facility when they were still students in 2010.
"BIG Thank You for making this Birthday a Special Day!!! This year's gift will change Our life forever!!! #BoyOrGirl," Griffin captioned his game-changing pic on Thursday.

? Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) February 12, 2015Rebecca's bump is still pretty tiny, so it looks as though we'll meet baby TimberBiel at least a few months before we meet...well, let's just call him or her RG4 for now.
But great news all around, congratulations to all!
