Washington's Luke McCaffrey looking to make his own name in the NFL following his dad and brothers
Luke McCaffrey this weekend will become the latest member of his family to play in the NFL
ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Luke McCaffrey has some big cleats to fill as the son of Ed and brother of Christian. Also following brother Max, he is on the verge of being the fourth member of his family to play in the NFL.
McCaffrey knows all about what comes with having a well-known last name, and now he's trying to make his own name in professional football as a rookie wide receiver with the Washington Commanders.
The converted quarterback has already formed a strong bond with Jayden Daniels and expects his upbringing on and off the field to help him adjust to the next level.
“I took everything from them,” McCaffrey said of learning from his father and brothers. “So much of life is the nurture aspect of that and becoming a product of your environment, and I was lucky enough to have such a beautiful environment growing up."
