Jamaal sits down to share his improbably journey from Texas high school phenom, to the NFL, to how he’s found direction in his post-football life.

Jamaal is a newly inducted member of the Texas Sports Hall of Fame, and he shares with the guys his emotions of being recognized as one of the greatest athletes in the state’s history.

The aftermath of the NFL has been a winding road for Jamaal. He gets candid with Peanut and Roman about events that led to loneliness and suicidal thoughts. Jamaal opens up about how therapy helped pull out of his darkest days, and how he’s still on a journey to finding complete inner peace. And he gives a message to other former players, and everyone, who finds themselves in a similar position: lean on their support system. It’s a conversation you don’t want to miss.
