When you think of Coby Bryant, you think of Kobe Bryant, because well, why would you not?

This Bryant took home the Jim Thorpe Award as the best defensive back in all of college football. As for the other Bryant, well, he is the late Los Angeles Lakers legendary shooting guard.

Are Seattle Seahawks cornerback Coby Bryant and the late Kobe Bryant related?
This comes as quite the shock, but no, these Bryants are not related. I am sure you are crestfallen over this, but you will get over this in due time. It would have been so cool alright, but just because two athletes’ names are homophones does not mean they are related. Are the NFL‘s two Josh Allens related? One plays for the Bills and one plays for the Jaguars, but sadly, they are not related.
Given that Coby Bryant was born in 1999, odds are, he was named after the late, great Lakers superstar. This was around the time Kobe Bryant made his ascension to superstardom over in Los Angeles. He won five championships in the purple and gold. Though he is no longer with us, the Mamba Mentality remains an ever-present part of our lives. Does Bryant play with this, though?
Now that you know that these Bryants are not related, you can get on with your ridiculous lives.
