NFL: Good Morning Football

On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Super Bowl champion Ben Utecht joins Peanut and Roman. Ben reflects on the moments that led to his NFL career and credits Tony Dungy for giving him his shot in the league. He shares what it was like competing with Peyton Manning and tells a story that sums up what it was like playing with him. Ben opens up about the concussion he sustained during practice that aired on Hard Knocks and how that experience led him to become an advocate for brain health and a spokesman for the American Academy of Neurology.  Then, Ben talks about how a foot infection led to the launch of his company, Sole Care Rx. He shares what he’s learned since becoming a CEO and the leadership lessons he took from Tony Dungy into business. Later, Ben shares how his passion for music led him to a career as a singer and songwriter, and how the people of Indianapolis got to experience him for his voice first before they saw him on the football field.
