For Larry Fitzgerald Jr., the work is never done

Larry Fitzgerald Jr. had a question. Many questions, actually, but one main thought lingered with him.

How did Jerry Rice play at an elite level for so long, he wondered.

How did he train? How did he eat? How did he set up cornerbacks off the line? How did he come out of his breaks on pass patterns?

How, how, how?

Fitzgerald could've asked him over the phone. That wasn't good enough. He wanted to immerse himself in greatness up close, without distractions.

So he invited Rice to visit his home in the Twin Cities one summer to train with him and teach him.
