It’s 7:15 a.m. on Wednesday, and Aden Kelley has already had himself a morning.
He’s scrambling around for breakfast. He’s trying to dry his jeans, which were still damp after a run in the cycle (that somehow got stuck in a blanket). And in between it all, he’s got an interview with me — and he’s running late. He has to knock it out and get to the swather by 7:30 while downing a quick bite to eat and drying the jeans.
The Thomas-Fay-Custer defensive tackle is hardly a normal teenager, but this is mostly a normal morning for him as he gears up for a long day.
