Vince Wilfork is a natural born leader. The five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle, two-time Super Bowl champion, and BCS national champion never faced an opponent he couldn't handle on the field - a credit to his parents and the challenges his family had to overcome. Vince takes Dan through telling his parents he was gonna be an NFL player at an early age, to losing them in college, and what it was like to realize they'd never be able to see him accomplish his dreams. Vince and Dan also dive into the feeling of having Bill Belichick call him the “captain of the captains, the true leader of the team” and “the best defensive lineman I’ve ever coached - that's player, leader, on the field, off the field, practice player." Vince also talks about being a key part of the Patriots' dynasty, his relationship with Belichick and Tom Brady, and how in retirement, he's honoring his father with his own line of barbeque sauce, GHI75.
