FOR NFL
ROOKIES, THE REAL FATHER’S DAY
COMES THIS SEPTEMBER
They’ll definitely get
him something for Father’s Day this June 15. Probably a colorful tie, or
maybe a new pair of slippers.
But the real
Father’s Day present from five NFL rookies will be unwrapped from September
4-8 – on NFL Kickoff 2003 Weekend. At that time, if all goes well, they’ll
give dad a gift only 132 sons have presented before -- following in his
footsteps as NFL players.
“There is nothing more
a son wants than to follow in his father’s footsteps,” says Indianapolis
Colts rookie wide receiver AARON MOOREHEAD, whose father EMERY
started at tight end for the Super Bowl XX champion Chicago Bears. “To be
able to do that, and especially to be able to do that in football, is
special. My father is just as excited about it as I am – if not more so.”
Moorehead, a free
agent out of the University of Illinois, caught the attention of the Colts
through his hard work and competitiveness. His father in the same way
impressed the New York Giants’ coaching staff 26 years ago as a sixth- round
draft pick out of Colorado. Emery went on to play 12 seasons (1977-88) in
the NFL with the Giants, Denver Broncos and Bears.
He passed on some
fatherly advice before he sent his only son to Colts minicamp this May.
“He told me to never let anyone outwork
you,” says Aaron, a 6-3, 203-pounder. “Focus on what you need to do. Don’t
worry about what other people are doing. Work hard and put in the extra
effort. I make sure everyone around me knows I am willing to work hard.
I’ve taken that attitude into rookie camp and will continue it into training
camp.”
As a rookie receiver in 1977, injuries to
incumbent players allowed the rookie Emery to work his way into the Giants’
starting lineup for the first preseason game. He caught three passes in
that game and went on to start the rest of his rookie season.
“It doesn’t matter if you get drafted or
not,” says Emery. “Once you get into training camp, everyone has an
opportunity. Once you get an opportunity, it’s just about competing day-in
and day-out – trying to move up the ladder. It’s about getting those reps
and showing what you can do.”
Aaron Moorehead has displayed the same type
of perseverance that his father did, and hopes for similar results. A
walk-on at Illinois, he finished his career with 1,293 receiving yards while
averaging 15.2 yards per catch. “Where he started, where he’s been and how
he’s motivated himself – these are the lessons that carry over to life,”
says Emery, who runs a construction-service company in downtown Chicago and
sells real estate in Deerfield, a northern Chicago suburb. “Aaron started
at the bottom of the heap and moved up. He worked himself to a varsity
letter after being a walk-on.”
Aaron – who has graduated with a degree in
sports management -- credits his success partly to good genes. “I was
blessed with good hands and pretty good speed,” he says. “It’s taken me
where I want to be at this point in my life.”
When he reports to Colts training camp in
July, Aaron will get his chance to make his father proud. “They bring in
guys with potential – guys to keep and use,” says Emery. “He’s way ahead of
where I was at his age. Granted, competition is a lot fiercer than it was
20 years ago. He’s got all the tools. But every father feels that way
about his son.”
Moorehead is one of six NFL rookies
looking to follow in the footsteps of their fathers – or grandfathers.
The other rookies this year who can be
added to the NFL fathers-sons list are Indianapolis guard MAKOA FREITAS,
son of former Detroit Lions tackle ROCKY FREITAS; New England
Patriots defensive tackle DAN KLECKO, son of former New York Jets
defensive end JOE KLECKO; Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback
CHRIS SIMMS, son of former New York Giants quarterback and present
CBS-TV NFL analyst PHIL SIMMS. Arizona wide receiver REGGIE
NEWHOUSE, son of former Dallas Cowboys running back ROBERT NEWHOUSE.
And going way
back in NFL history, Tennessee Titans quarterback JASON GESSER can
follow in the NFL footsteps of his grandfather – quarterback JOSEPH “RED”
DUNN, who played for the Milwaukee Badgers and Green Bay Packers from
1924-31.
