WAKE FOREST, N.C. — Torry Holt came prepared. For a mid-summer, Sunday afternoon interview, he arrives with a Macbook and a Five Star spiral notebook. Within each are ideas, statistics and readings.
Deep into our conversation at this juice bar he frequents, I ask Holt about a stat of his I came across but don’t have at my fingertips. Don’t you have the most receiving yards by a player in his first five years in NFL history?
“Yep,” Holt replies as he reaches for his iPhone. He searches for what appears to be a graphic posted to Instagram.
