The Winning Mindset with Chris Spielman JAYSON WALLER UNLEASHED

In this edition of the True Underdog Podcast, Jayson Waller hosts a special guest and NFL Detroit Lions legend, Chris Spielman.
An All-Star linebacker from Massillon Ohio, he was a 2 time All American for The Ohio State University Buckeyes. Chris played for 11 years in the NFL for the Detroit Lions, Buffalo Bills, and the Cleveland Browns. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
Our guest is also a former NFL analyst with Fox Sports, a Professional Speaker and a Cancer Warrior – Chris continues the fight that he and his late wife Stefanie started together shortly after her first diagnosis. He found his biggest opponent to be off the field.
As well as being an Author and ESPN College Football Analyst, Chris was recently appointed as the Special Assistance to the Owner and CEO of his former Football club, the Detroit Lions!
Chris’ life has an order: Faith, Family and Community – and he lives by it.
"Commitment is not a test drive. It is a firm resolve to purpose and the foundation for every choice that fulfils your goals. It is life with a vision. Embrace it. Anything less is just trial and error."
- Chris Spielman
