Wilfork Working Hard

Patriots NT Vince Wilfork, the linchpin of the Patriots' 3-4 defense, ordinarily goes on easy street with his diet and workout regimen for a while after a season ends. Not this year. Wilfork is in the thick of his conditioning program and claims he's already lost 10 pounds since getting an early jump on things. "Conditioning is a huge area when playing this sport, especially for me, being able to stay on the field as long as I can," Wilfork said.
