| RICARDO LOCKETTE, WR SEATTLE SEAHAWKS |
EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey — When Albany’s Earl Lockette talks about his son’s journey to Super Bowl XLVIII, he doesn’t start with the unstable and unpredictable ride Ricardo went on in the last six months when he bounced around to three different NFL teams.
He doesn’t even start with Ricardo’s playing days at Monroe High School, where the speedy receiver was barely used on offense and eventually stopped playing football for two years.
Instead, Earl’s story starts 20 years ago on a Little League football field, back when he was Ricardo’s first coach and first fan. Back when he and his wife, Felita, would listen to their son talk about how he would be famous one day. Back when all Ricardo had was a dream.
