Steve Wyche and Jim Trotter are joined by former all-pro cornerback turned critically acclaimed actor, Nnamdi Asomugha. Never imagining that he would star in a play, Asomugha describes his journey from football to acting (19:39). The conversation covers a wide variety of topics, including Asomugha's role in 'Sylvie's Love', (29:58), his post-football relationship with the NFL (38:56), and his ACTS program that connects youth to college opportunities (42:30). Having retired two years prior, he reflects on how he thinks he may have reacted following Colin Kaepernick's protests against racial inequality (47:11). Plus, Steve and Jim break down the complex situation with the Houston Texans with QB Deshaun Watson asking for a trade just one day after hiring David Culley as their newest head coach (2:10).
