➡️ About The Guest
Marques Colston rose from Hofstra University to become one of the New Orleans Saints' greatest wide receivers, transforming from a seventh-round draft pick in 2006 to the franchise's all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns during his 10-year career, including a Super Bowl victory in 2009.
After retiring from the NFL, he successfully transitioned into business, becoming an entrepreneur, educator, and strategic consultant, while founding Champion Venture Capital (CVP) to create wealth-building opportunities for underserved communities, applying the same dedication and work ethic that made him an NFL standout to his business ventures.
