Fuller is working out hard just days before Texans rookie camp begins. He knows there are lots of expectations on his shoulders, so he wants to stay ahead.
"He got here Friday and was out here training Saturday," Whitfield added. "In the heat on Sunday and Monday. Yesterday was the only day we took off because he needed to rest his legs."
