After difficult path, A.J. Blue playing for family

Posted Jul 19, 2013
A.J. Blue knows that getting to the NFL is going to be difficult. He’ll have a degree in communications when he graduates from UNC, and he wants to go into radio broadcasting if that doesn’t work out. He needs to provide for his son and family either way, but he doesn’t want to leave the game behind wondering if there’s something extra he could have given. He’s not just playing for himself, after all. (Fox Sports Carolinas)
