Brandon Bostick is a former NFL Tight End. He is originally from South Carolina and starred at West Florence HS before going to Newberry College. While at Newberry, he played Wide Receiver and scored 19 touchdowns in only 39 total collegiate games (24 starts). Brandon's journey has been a story of overcoming the odds to achieve his goals. He played two full seasons with the Green Bay Packers. He would also spend time with the Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, and New York Jets during his NFL career. Unfortunately, on January 15, 2015 in the NFC Championship Game, he was involved in a play that would be the low point in his career. He fumbled an onside kick, which gave the Seattle Seahawks one last chance to score. The Seahawks scored and would eventually win the game in overtime, advancing to the Super Bowl. Despite this setback Brandon has maintained a positive attitude. He is a good example of a person being resilient and understanding how blessed he is. He had a great career and got to play with some of the best to ever play the game of football.  In today’s episode, we discuss: His journey to defy the odds and become an NFL player What it was like playing with Aaron Rodgers and in Green Bay The qualities of successful NFL players Advice for bouncing back and overcoming setbacks in life Instagram: @BoomBostick86 Twitter: @Bostick11 Everybody Fumbles by Earnest Bynar Recommended Articles about Brandon: Earnest Byner Tries to Help Ease Brandon Bostick's Anguish (ESPN) Brandon Bostick still haunted by onside kick (Pro Football Focus)  Brandon Bostick relives the onside kick that forever changed his life (Sports Illustrated) Empathy for Brandon Bostick (from radio personality & former NFL player Ross Tucker) How One NFL All-Time Goat is Trying to Help Another (NY Post) Past "Success is a Choice" podcast episodes of interest . . .
