Welcome to Redirected, a show all about life's pivotal moments.

We sit down with celebrities, athletes, and entrepreneurs in hopes to gain inspiration,

guidance, and hopefully some entertainment with each and every episode.

My name is Andrew Eason, I'm your host, and the reason I created this show is because

I myself have experienced so many redirections, having transitioned from being an engineer

to a professional athlete to ultimately being a social media entrepreneur and expanding

beyond that.

And I'm not here to teach you how things are supposed to be done or to tell you the

best way to go about things.

My goal with this is to ultimately try to bring you stories that might tap into your experience

that you're going through right now.

So today's guest is Cedric Thompson, and Cedric and I first connected nine months ago after

I got cut by the Jaguars, and I was introduced to him by actually you guys, my fans and friends

who said that Cedric Thompson was a guy out there who was doing something similar to me

where he was bouncing around the NFL, trying to find his way and documenting all of his

journeys on social media.

So over the past couple of months, Cedric and I have built a pretty strong relationship,

and I found myself in Minnesota really excited to be able to meet up with Ced and have this

conversation.

Ced is incredibly wise and he has some great things to say.

You'll notice that I am honestly seeking advice from him as I look to pursue my NFL career

and wisdom and how to do that.
