Summary

On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Lorenzo Neal, former All-Pro fullback turned broadcaster and businessman, joins Peanut and Roman on the show. Lorenzo starts out sharing how cigarettes are involved in his welcome to the NFL moment. Lorenzo was also known as a world-class wrestler, and Roman shares the story how a teammate found that out the hard way in a restaurant parking lot. Later, Lorenzo discuses what it was like to block for running back greats LaDanian Tomlinson, Corey Dillon, Eddie George, and Mike Alstott. And we hear why Lorenzo credits to his grandmother for his 221-consecutive games played streak. Lorenzo also shares how his life mantra has guided his post-NFL path and led to success in the media and business worlds. All this, and more, in a conversation you won’t want o miss.

The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Radio.
