Checking in w/ Larry Black Jr. as he joins the @Bengals at training camp. He used the time off to train at one of his favorite local spots. http://www.local12.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/larry-black-jr-tries-make-impression-hometown-bengals-15061.shtml?wap=0

 

Some of the players are already on the team, while others are still trying to stand out. Larry Black Jr.'s dream of playing in the NFL almost ended as quickly as it started.

 

A devastating injury during an off-season workout last year kept him on the sidelines. A motivational speaker once said, "You seldom, if ever, get lucky sitting down." For Larry Black Jr., it's a mantra he can live by.

 

"I definitely feel like I'm 100 percent for sure," said Black. He's ready to run. Months after battling back from a broken fibula his NFL dreams are back on track. 

 

Beginning Thursday, Black will be back on the practice field at Paul Brown Stadium with his teammates, this time for training camp. It's a physical, mental and emotional battle.
