GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson usually likes to take the field about 40 minutes before training camp practice starts.

On Monday and last Friday, he waited to start his warmup. He had Olympic soccer to watch.

Wilson's fiancée is U.S. women's national team star Sophia Smith, who made her Olympic debut last week, a year after playing in her first World Cup. With a nine-hour time difference between Arizona and Paris, Wilson was able to watch some of the first half of both of Smith's games before he left the locker room for practice.
