On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Super Bowl champion David Tyree joins Peanut and Roman. David recounts the “The Helmet Catch” in Super Bowl XLII 15 years later, and what he would say to Rodney Harrison about it now. That game was the last of David’s career, but he shares why he wouldn’t trade that moment for a longer time in the NFL. David gets personal about how his arrest for drug-dealing changed his life and sparked his spiritual awakening. He also talks about homeschooling his seven kids, and why he says the retail business will “take your soul.”
