(CBSNewYork)- New York Giants fourth round pick Darnay Holmes already has some familiarity with the NFL. His father, Darick Holmes, played in the league for five seasons with the Buffalo Bills, Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts in the mid-to-late 90s.
Though Holmes was too young to remember his dad playing in the league (he was born in 1998), he says he has learned plenty of lessons from his father’s experiences. In a new letter published today on The Player’s Tribune, Holmes explains that the biggest lesson that he learned came from the financial side of things.
