In this week’s episode, John and Eric continue their conversation from past weeks on athlete activism. They hand out some Big Ws to some impactful athletes locally in Maryland and give shout-outs to New Balance, and Colin Kaepernick for their recent initiatives.
Our guest this week is Adrian Tracy. Adrian has played football professionally for over a decade. He was drafted by the New York Giants in 2010 out of William & Mary and became a Super Bowl champion as a member of the 2011-2012 Giants team. After going through some brutal injuries and not getting a fair shot to display his talent in New York and Arizona, Adrian transitioned to the Canadian Football League (CFL) where he’s performed at a high level for the past 5-6 years.
You will learn a lot from our conversation with Adrian. We talk about the power of faith, how experience is the best teacher, and why sometimes you need to “separate to elevate.” We also discuss the link between the rise of social media and an increase in athlete activism, plus so much more. Please enjoy this conversation with Adrian Tracy!
