Show notes

On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Peanut and Roman are joined by former All-Pro Maurice Jones‑Drew for a fast, funny, and insightful conversation about the journey that shaped one of the NFL’s most unique running backs. Maurice talks about how taking ballet classes as a kid paid off for his NFL career, being part of the De La Salle High School dynasty, and the wild recruiting stories that led him to UCLA. He shares memories of Eric Bieniemy, his connection to Jackie Robinson, and how Kyle Shanahan taught him the West Coast offense through Madden. The guys revisit MJD’s “welcome to the NFL” moment, his bruising running style, and the time MJD got the “Peanut Punch” treatment. MJD breaks down the backs who inspired him, how he’s coaching his son today, and how broadcasting helped him transition into life after football. A sharp, energetic look at the mindset behind a true NFL original. The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
