I recently heard that the actor Terry Crews used to have a stellar career in the NFL. I had to do some research to figure out if this was true. It turns out that Terry Crews did play in the NFL from 1991-1997. I was so impressed and amazed when I heard this, and I couldn’t believe that he was even successful in the NFL.
My first thought was, “Wow, he must have had to work really hard to make it to the pros!” In my head I imagined Terry’s struggles and accomplishments as a professional football star. What really surprised me was that he had an awesome career in the NFL and he isn’t even known as an ex-football player!
At first, I found it strange that he too hadn’t found fame with his NFL career, especially since he was no slouch. From what I understand, he had been a line-backer for the Philadelphia Eagles and San Diego Chargers. He also played for the Las Vegas Posse in the CFL for one season before concluding his professional football career in 1997.
Given his background, I’m tempted to say that Terry Crews was born for success and I truly admire what he’s been able to achieve. I feel that he demonstrates determination and resilience, which is something that I strive to follow everyday. It’s humbling to think that someone can balance between multiple career paths and still be successful in each one.
Terry Crews is a testament to the value of having a great work ethic and focusing on what you really want to achieve in life. He may have retired from the NFL, but his story doesn’t end there. He’s gone on to have a successful acting career with roles in sitcoms like Brooklyn Nnine-Nine and films like The Expendables – what an impressive comeback!
Terry Crews is also an amazing advocate for other individuals in Hollywood and beyond, using his platform to raise awareness of issues like racism, sexism and gender equality. I’ve heard about how he speaks up against Hollywood’s gender pay gap and I’m really inspired as I too fight for gender equality in the workplace.
Not only did Terry Crews have an incredible NFL career, he has inspired many to never give up and keep hustling towards their own success. His career in the NFL serves as an example for working hard and pushing through. Who knows what other incredible successes he will gain in the future? It’s exciting to watch what he’ll do next.
