About this episode
Eric Dickerson pulled no punches on this one. The iconic NFL running back let it all fly, from addressing his comments on Saquon Barkley nearly breaking his record to exposing the league’s discriminatory insurance policies that most fans have never heard about. Matt and Stak sit down with the Hall of Famer to talk about his legendary career, his battles with the Rams over contracts, and what it was like playing in the NFL during the wild 1980s era of steroids and loaded boxes. Dickerson also opens up about growing up in Texas under Friday night lights, receiving racist hate mail, and the toll football has taken on his health. This one is raw, real, and classic ALL THE SMOKE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
