Veteran wide receiver Randall Cobb said he and his family are lucky to be alive after surviving a savage house fire that engulfed his Nashville home.

The NFL star shared several photos and videos of the property on social media Wednesday, after a Tesla charger that was inside their garage caught fire. 

'First and foremost, we are all safe and healthy,' Cobb captioned the Instagram post. 'We got out of the house and I was able to go back in and get our dog, Louie.' 


He and his wife Aiyda posted a small portion of the extensive damage that was caused, notably burned cars and some serious fire damage to their garage. 

Randall even thought the blaze was so dire that his Mercedes G Wagon was going to blow up.

'I can't get the image of the brave firefighter getting into position out of my head; he didn't even have water to shoot yet. I truly thought the cars were going to explode and that we would lose him to this tragedy. He is a true hero,' Cobb went on.

'Unfortunately we don't know how much, if anything, will be salvageable, but this has been a reminder that nothing is more important than the health of our family.

'We are grateful for our incredible community in Nashville, and the support from our close friends that have given us a temporary roof over our heads and shoulders to lean on.'
