In 2005, he was drafted by the Jets in the 6th round and they cut him a year later. He then spent a year out of football, trying out for a different team nearly every week. In 2007, he was signed by the Houston Texans where he played 5 seasons and made his way to Denver as a free agent for two more seasons until he was released. After he retired, he struggled a bit mentally, especially when he had a gig as radio show host while the Broncos were making their victory run to Super Bowl 50. He was jealous and depressed.
Today, he's in a better place with his beautiful wife Stacy, two cute kiddos and working his land both in Colorado and Texas. Joel has some great words of advice and a tattoo to always remember which direction he's going.
