On this week’s episode of Trending Thoughts, Torrey is joined by The Wine MVP, former NFL defensive back Will Blackmon. Their conversation highlighted what it’s like to have to move on from the game and find a new career and passion in your 30s like the way Will has done with wine. He traded in his skills as a safety for the skills of a sommelier and established a monthly wine club. Will and Torrey then focus on what the final week in the NFL season is like from a player’s perspective when there is either everything to gain, or nothing to gain, in light of recent allegations of week 17 tanking.
