‘Who says the NFL is a cold-hearted business? During minicamp in June, coach Dick Jauron told rookie free agent linebacker Jon Banks to stay home and be with his wife who had given birth to a baby girl. There are bigger things than football, Jauron said. "He wanted to come back because obviously as a rookie he wants a chance to make the team," Jauron said. "We encouraged him to stay home. He’s going to miss three days. It’ll be all right. He’ll get back to training camp and will be ready to go."’
