Cordell Joshua headed back home to Oklahoma to enjoy the holiday season after signing his rookie contract with the Chicago Coyotes. Joshua enjoys a no frills Christmas, spending it the same way he has since he was a child, surrounded by his family with a variety of good food and drink. Cordell and his family enjoy a few Christmas rituals, including a drive out of the city to take a walk on the day itself, and an annual toast to hope for good health and fortune in the year to come. Cordell managed to find some time to meet up with his old hometown friends and share a beer, where they all exchanged a few stories about the last year, something the busy schedule of pro football doesn't allow him to do as much as he would like. Cordell will have to miss out on his usual family New Year party this year however due to his commitments with the Coyotes, including a rigorous holiday training camp and volunteering with some local charities, before they play their next game, and so he was forced to catch an early flight back to Chicago on Wednesday morning to ensure he arrived in good time. All in all, Cordell's Christmas was nothing extraordinary but it was exactly the way he had hoped it would be.
