Summary
On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl receiver Donald Driver joins Peanut and Roman. The guys recall some of their fierce battles on the field, including the time Roman body-slammed Donald, which he was penalized for, and another when Peanut tried to, playfully, break Donad’s arm. Donald is a dedicated supporter of HBCUs, and he talks to Peanut and Roman about how he used his performance company “Driven Elite” on a first-of-its-kind HBCU partnership with Delaware St. University.
**NOTE: This episode was taped on radio row during the week of Super Bowl 58.
