Blacktivities returns in February!!! Check out the third episode of Shannon's newest podcast, RIGHTing Narratives in this bonus episode.

Isaiah Mack is an NFL defensive tackle and former standout at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. During his college career, Mack earned All-American honors and was named the Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 2018. Known for his resilience and disruptive play on the defensive line, he recorded 20 career sacks and was a dominant force in his final season. After becoming an undrafted free agent in 2019, Mack signed with the Tennessee Titans and has since played for several NFL teams, most recently the Miami Dolphins.

Being that Isaiah and Shannon are from the same hometown, they met up there for this conversation. Isaiah's narrative is one of hard work, appreciation of peaceful moments with family, and looking forward to settling into a normal life after the NFL. He gives his mom credit for where he is today.
