On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles joins hosts Charles “Peanut” Tillman and Roman Harper. 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 also shares his devotion to the Special Olympics, and his journey from finding his confidence as a youth competitor to now being a global ambassador for the organization.

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. In the NFL, Jamaal bloomed into one of the most electrifying runners in the league. He credits his success to head coach Andy Reid, and details how Reid maximized his talents in the Chiefs offense. Roman can also attest to Jamaal’s speed, as he shares the story of seeing Jamaal blow by him on the longest run of Jamaal’s NFL career.

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.

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