With mom as role model, Arizona Cardinals OL Justin Pugh gives back to the community

When college students go home for break, there's a lot to do. There's family to see, friends to catch up with, naps to take. But for Justin Pugh, during breaks from Syracuse, there was one other item on the list: Hang out with some sixth graders.

"I didn't make him — but I did make him — come back in college and talk to my sixth grade class, all the time," Carolyn Gavaghan said, smiling.

Gavaghan, Pugh's mom, was a school teacher for more than 30 years, and she had Pugh come talk to her classes.
