VIDEO: Ken Griffey Jr.'s Son Trey Griffey Makes Excellent Snag on Josh Dobbs Pass for Steelers
By Adam Weinrib
In case you thought the Griffey bloodline was poised to hit a wall in the sports world, allow us to introduce you to former Arizona Wildcats wideout and current Steeler Trey Griffey. The kid of The Kid showed his stuff, juggling a Josh Dobbs pass and hauling it in following a full-on sprint. Certainly worth the challenge, which gave Pittsburgh another moment to remember late in this impressive showing.

Of course, there's so much more to enjoy about the Trey Griffey story, and the broadcast took the time to highlight his title-winning family (Griffey Sr., of course, was a member of the Big Red Machine back in the day).
They grow up so fast.

The 25-year-old Griffey has been a Colt and Dolphin, but hopes to stick this time around closer to his father's Donora, PA roots, a tiny hometown he somehow shares with fellow Baseball Hall of Famer Stan Musial.
Perhaps this underdog will be a part of the next crew that brings more hardware to Six-Burgh. It would only be fitting.
