So now you're not a quarterback now.
Yeah.
You'll always be a quarterback, but you're not doing it on a day-to-day basis.
I don't get paid anymore.
Right, you're not getting paid.
Yeah, I guess maybe that defines it.
Do you look at and see, like, man, what a position I was in?
Like, is it different to look?
Like, sometimes I'll look at things in my life and be like, man,
I didn't kind of not realize the position I was in, but, you know,
like to a regular man looking at a quarterback, you're like, dang,
that's the guy, you know, that's Odysseus or whatever.
Yeah, I mean, that's a great point.
Like, looking back on it now, like, you get tunnel vision,
and, like, you don't maybe enjoy it or have as much fun
or take advantage of it as much as you would now looking back on it.
I mean, you're just locked in and you're just doing your job,
and, you know, sometimes it's a grind, sometimes it's fun,
sometimes it's really hard.
But looking back on it now, you know, I don't want to say that I wish
I would have done things differently, but it was an awesome, awesome experience.
It was an awesome experience.
It was an awesome experience.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it shaped a lot of, like, who I am and, you know,
the people I associate with and how I respond to things.
And so, I mean, it's, you know, from the time I was fourth grade
until, you know, 35, it kind of shaped me.
Yeah, I just can't.
I was trying to think about something in my life that had been that much
of, like, a shit, like a thing that I was, like, a vehicle in my life.
And I don't know if I've had that.
So, it just must seem a lot that now you're in, like, a new career.
It's like you're trying to find – do you want to find a new career?
Do you feel like you need to?
Or are you just kind of, like – I don't know.
Like, what do you think?
Like, do you feel, like, a pressure to?
Or do you just –
Yeah, I mean, because, I mean, like, not many people when they're 35
or whatever age people are done playing football, like,
have to go out there and, in the real world, like, figure out the rest of your
life.
Right.
So, a career – career, I don't know if that's the right word.
I think, like, for me, it's more like purpose.
Like, what is going to drive me?
What gives me purpose in my life going forward?
And there was pressure when I got out to, like, to figure that out.
And I was never one of those guys that had other businesses
or stuff going on when I played.
It was literally – I was just – I played football.
Like, I had plan A, and there was no backup.
And so, now, when I got out, it was just like, all right, I'm clueless.
Right.
What am I going to do?
I have no idea.
I know that football is over.
I knew I didn't want to coach.
I knew I wanted to kind of get out of that world.
So, it was really just trying to figure out, all right,
what the hell am I going to wake up and be happy doing?
It gives me a sense of purpose.
I like it.
I like the people I'm working with.
And that took time, you know.
And I'm probably still kind of figuring that one out.
Hope you enjoyed that video.
And you can watch another.
And you can watch this one.
You can watch this one.
Different options, different choices.
Some guy just brings you one option, not this guy.
Two options.
Watch one.
This one or this one.
Thank you.
