Soon-to-be dad Mike Sainristil excited to create memories and be a role model for daughter


“Biggest thing for me is just being present wherever I am. If I’m at home, being attentive at home. If I’m at work, being attentive at work,” he said. “Just being 100% all in wherever I am just so I can give the most of myself to what I’m doing at the time.”

Just like the rookie has teammates that he’ll be looking to learn from in a football capacity, Sainristil has plenty of people around him to give advice as he gets ready to step into this fatherhood chapter.
