About this episode
What really happens when an NFL player gets cut, claimed, and has to move cities in 24 hours? Former Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Chad Muma sits down with Denny Thompson and Joby Martin to share the inside story of his sudden move to the Indianapolis Colts, the emotions of getting released, and the lessons learned on and off the field. Chad opens up about the moment he was told to “bring in your iPad,” the whirlwind of leaving Jacksonville overnight, and the challenge of starting fresh in a new city. He talks about the support of his wife during one of the hardest days of his career, the reality of battling type 1 diabetes as a pro athlete, and how setbacks have shaped him into the man he is today. This is more than a football story. It’s a look at identity, perseverance, and what it takes to keep moving forward when the game changes. Whether you’re a Jags fan, Colts fan, or just love real conversations with athletes, this episode is a powerful reminder that the NFL is about more than highlight reels.
