Ken Norton Jr. has come a long way.
And I don’t mean here to England to coach a football game this weekend.
He’s come on his football journey from Los Angeles to Dallas to San Francisco to USC to Seattle to Oakland and, this season, back to Seattle.
The son of former heavyweight boxing champion Ken Norton—the son of one of the few men on Earth to beat Muhammad Ali in the ring and maybe the only one to break Ali’s jaw—was an NFL linebacker who won three Super Bowls. That was while he was playing for the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers in the 1990s.
