What do you do when you’re an NFL star with over $3 million in career earnings who’s excited about the birth of your first child? Why, you buy some flashy jewelry to commemorate it.

Jacksonville Jaguars receiver D.J. Chark, who is coming off his third season in the league, is set to become a father before the team next takes the field. The 24-year-old and his wife, Chantelle, are expecting their daughter, Mackenzie, in May. And according to a report from TMZ, Chark wanted a special piece ready to celebrate it.

He purchased a diamond-covered pendant that features the engraved message “Mommy and Daddy love you,” as well as her name engraved into the side of the gold ring

The pendant alone contains 15 carats of diamonds and 80 grams of gold, while the chain that goes with it has 150 grams of gold and 20 carats of diamonds. All in all, the piece is reportedly worth around $50,000.

We wish Chark and his family all the best during this exciting time.
