On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former defensive end Carl Nassib joins hosts Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper. Just a year into his retirement from the NFL, Carl is now the CEO and Founder of the volunteer partnering app Rayze. He shares with Roman and Peanut how the idea for the app came after a trip to a youth detention center in Tampa, and how he brought it to fruition despite no previous experience in the tech space. Carl also goes back in time to talk about how he went from a “try hard” walk on at Penn St. to the school’s single-season sack leader, and eventual third-round pick in 2016. And although he’s found success in his second act, Carl explains why retiring from the league was harder than he thought. And Carl shares how he’s adjusting to his new corporate life in the Big Apple.
