He'll be returning to his home state this weekend, and his parents won't even be there to see him.

Jennings said that his parents are planning to make the 400-mile trip from Live Oak, Fla., to Miami to attend the University of Miami-Virginia Tech game on Thursday night. It's Senior Night, and the Jennings family plans to watch Hurricanes cornerback Bruce Johnson, who is the son of Kelly Jennings' older sister, Cassandra.

The Seahawks cornerback said that his parents don't want to make the trip twice in a week, so they'll be skipping the Seahawks-Dolphins game.

"I'll see them in the offseason," Jennings said with a shrug. "Of course, I'd love for them to be there. It's always great to see your parents. But I don't let it bother me."

Jennings added that his parents have seen him play live just three times during his three-year NFL career.
