Brandon Marshall is a record-holding wide receiver who played 13 seasons in the NFL. Now retired, he's building a sports media and fitness empire with his brand's "I Am Athlete" and "House of Athlete" which seeks to provide the elite sports, fitness, and recovery resources professional athletes have to the average person. Brandon is known for being outspoken and honest, so I was eager to get the inside scoop on how injuries are treated in the NFL, how wide-spread painkillers are before games, and whether or not Terrell Owens should be playing football at 49 years old. I had so much fun with Brandon and really appreciate his insight into the most popular sport in America!
