Eric LeGrand (@EricLeGrand52), former Rutgers football player, Founder of LeGrand Coffee and LeGrand Whiskey, Co-Founder of Knight Society and Jimmy V Award winner, joins us on Sports Business Radio.

In October 2010, LeGrand sustained a spinal cord injury at his C3 and C4 vertebrae in a game at MetLife Stadium. Since that life-altering incident occurred, he has become a worldwide source of inspiration whose message of positivity has influenced a countless number of people throughout the world. Additionally, LeGrand has developed an incredible business and professional acumen, becoming an established entrepreneur, motivational speaker, sports analyst, philanthropist and author.

LeGrand discusses the launch of LeGrand Coffee, LeGrand Whiskey and the Knight Society, what he looks for in investments as an entrepreneur, he shares details of his upcoming “A Walk to Believe” event and how he tells us the keys to remaining positive since his paralysis in 2010.
