Austin Ekeler's Comeback Story

40 minutes

On this episode of Comeback Stories, Darren & Donny are joined virtually by Austin Ekeler, a top running back in the NFL. In the last two seasons, Austin has led all running backs and wide receivers in touchdowns and has become the most valuable player in the fantasy football community.

He joins Comeback Stories to share a little about his childhood and how growing up in his household helped him develop mental toughness at an early age. Austin credits how gaining that mental toughness early on as why he is as successful as he is today. He also walks us through his underdog story and how growing up his size he was constantly overlooked and doubted.

Austin has a relentless work ethic in the gym and is passionate about prioritizing his mental health and physical fitness. He shares his take on the importance of working hard and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone in order to achieve the goals you set out for yourself.

Austin also has a heart for helping others and started the Austin Ekeler Foundation with the mission to help create opportunities for people to fulfill their passions and ultimately their lives. He is now heading into his 7th season in the NFL and is excited to see where he is going to end up next.

Whatever locker room gets him is a lucky one!
