Description

On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Peanut and Roman are joined by NFL Media analyst and former All-Pro receiver Steve Smith Sr. Peanut kicks off the discussion by recalling a play when Steve took a would-be interception away from him. Steve then shares his approach to critiquing current players as a former player turned sports media analyst. Roman and Steve reminisce about their on-field encounters, including a fight that broke out after a late hit Roman gave Steve during a game in 2009. Steve also shares why he questions the Hall of Fame vetting process, and how he stacks up against other Hall of Fame-caliber receivers. Steve also gets introspective about his transition from the NFL and why he says it was important to grieve the end of his football life. Steve has channeled his energy into combatting homelessness and talks about how he does that through the Steve Smith Family Foundation.

On the NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former All-Pro Charles “Peanut” Tillman and former Pro Bowler Roman Harper break bread with NFL legends about how they’ve taken the passion, drive and dedication that made them stars on the gridiron…and use it to achieve success in their post-playing careers. But it’s not just about the destination! Roman and “Peanut” aim to engage in some real talk with legends about their transitions from the game to finding their passion pursuits in other areas of life. And they manage to have some fun along the way.
