How Christian McCaffrey and his brothers are staying football-ready

There's a public park next to the Colorado home of Ed and Lisa McCaffrey where their four sons played as kids. It's not easily visible to the general public, tucked behind two big hills in a suburb outside Denver.

The park almost was taken for granted by Max, Christian, Dylan and Luke while they were growing up as sons of Denver Broncos wide receiver Ed McCaffrey. During the coronavirus pandemic, it has become a makeshift offseason training site for three of them.

It is on this field where Christian, the 23-year-old All-Pro running back for the Carolina Panthers; Dylan, 21, a junior quarterback for the University of Michigan; and Luke, 19, a sophomore quarterback for the University of Nebraska, work out daily with their three-time Super Bowl champion father, who is the head football coach at the University of Northern Colorado.
