On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former Pro Bowl quarterback Matt Cassel joins Roman and Peanut. Matt explains how he made it to the NFL after being a backup quarterback at USC and what it took to lead the New England Patriots to an 11-5 record after Tom Brady tore his ACL. He discusses what an NFL player has to deal with when they get traded, one thing he would have done differently in his career, and plays a word association game based on some of his famous teammates and coaches. He also explains why he went in broadcasting after his playing days and how he ended up as the cohost for the Lots to Say Podcast with Bobby Bones.

The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media.
