Sean joined the Hawkeye football team alongside the Walk Ons in the 2013 recruiting class. All the way from Dayton, Ohio, Sean saw early action in his career as he broke into the starting lineup in our 2014 redshirt freshman season. Sean played a crucial part to the offensive continuity in the undefeated 2015 season and was also apart of the Joe Moore award winning 2016 offensive line. Through his time at Iowa Sean started to battle some anxiety and depression and many will remember him releasing a statement about mental health in the fall of 2017 before we began our senior season, something that was widely respected throughout the team and Hawkeye Nation. After finishing his time at Iowa, Sean was signed as a free agent to the Washington Redskins before deciding to retire from football and enter the professional world. We talk about all of this and more on this episode!
