Kelvin Banks Jr. Drafted; Son Goes Viral

Kelvin Banks Jr., a highly decorated offensive lineman from the University of Texas, was selected ninth overall by the New Orleans Saints in the 2025 NFL Draft. During the home celebration, Banks' infant son, Khalil, became a viral sensation after spitting up on live television while being held by his mother, Demetria Bolden. The parenting mishap drew widespread humorous attention on social media. Banks arrives in New Orleans as the winner of both the Lombardi and Outland trophies and as an All-American, aiming to strengthen a Saints offense that has struggled in recent seasons. The Saints, under new head coach Kellen Moore, prioritized their offensive line with this pick rather than selecting a quarterback. The family's viral moment added a memorable and humanizing highlight to the night.
